Born in Cyprus, Jo Jakeman worked for many years in London before settling in Cornwall with her husband and sons.
When she's not writing or reading, Jo walks the coastal paths and plots the fictional downfall of those who have wronged her.
Praise for Jo Jakeman:
'I loved it!... A witty, insightful and thoroughly entertaining murder mystery!' - Jo Callaghan
'Packed with explosive twists, this captivating murder mystery will keep you reading late into the night' - Womans Own
'A superb mystery with perfectly drawn characters, plenty of twists and turns, and a suffocating school experience that ultimately, even inevitably leads to murder' - Katy Watson
'Absolutely loved this witty, wicked and cleverly plotted story, with its sharply-drawn characters and skewering of privilege and class... A classic murder mystery - and one that will keep you guessing to the very end' - Caz Frear
Not everyone who's missing wants to be found...
When artist Eloise Ford hears that human remains found in an abandoned mine are believed to be those of long-missing teenager Elizabeth King, the shock sends her reeling.
It can't be true. Eloise knows this for a fact because... she is Elizabeth King.
Now, her carefully curated life in Cornwall is falling apart. Her husband is acting strangely, her children aren't speaking to her and she can't sell a painting for love nor money. But much more worrying are the signs that someone knows exactly who she is... and why she had to vanish thirty years ago.
Eloise needs answers. Is her son's ex-girlfriend just plain annoying... or does she know something? Will the detection skills of the online 'Truth Seekers' group prove more than amateurish? What's the real story behind those village newcomers?
And just how far would she go to keep her family, her friends, and her fraudulent life, safe?
