Aoife | 3 comments It is set in England, the main character is a teacher in her early 20s who lives at home with her alcoholic mother. Her brother went missing under suspicious circumstances while she was a child. One of her students, a young girl goes missing and the teacher finds her body while out running. After that I get a bit lost, (view spoiler) The teacher develops some sort of relationship with an investigating officer in the murder case and he has something to do with finding her brother. Sorry about the disjointed summary, it's been a number of years since I read it but any ideas would be appreciated.

So maybe you read this 5 years ago, or was it closer to 20?

Standalone or part of a series?

Aoife | 3 comments It was about 5/6 years ago, as far as I know it was stand alone however I couldn't say that for certain.

The Missing by Jane Casey seems to match your description.
