"My mother named my brother. Most people assumed that his name was short for Mortimer or Morton or something, but this being my mom, it was just the Latin word for death.

MISSING was absolutely wonderful! Morte is one of the most original characters I have encountered in a long time, and I found myself slipping very comfortably into Liv's head. The "bond" (if you can call it that!) between these two siblings in very cleverly done and establishes a base for what I hope will be many more books to come! I'm already very anxious for the sequel! (I also feel the need to point out that this book is only $2.99 on Amazon! It would be a bargain at many times the price!)
MISSING is a fantastic paranormal story with suspense and mystery and possibly vampires. But it's also the story of sibling rivalry and how a girl, Liv, overcomes her negative emotions toward her brother, Morte, and puts her life on hold while she searches for him. It's a quick read, and a great story for those looking for paranormal stories with great character development and depth.
