When Grant dies in custody, her world implodes.

But how can this be true when he was with Maggie all night?

Following a trail of deception, it's up to her to uncover the truth.

But Maggie has a secret too. Something she hasn't told anyone.

She was with her husband all night - apart from one missing hour...

Review :
PRAISE FOR THE MISSING HOUR: The pace of The Missing Hour is relentless, the story intriguing. If you're looking for a mile-a-minute thriller, this is the book for you! The Missing Hour is the perfect embodiment of a high concept thriller. Brilliantly conceived, superbly plotted and eloquently told, Rutherford has surely produced one of the best books of the year. I loved it! Robert Rutherford returns with another high-octane, high-stakes thriller . . . get set for a thrill ride! A high octane cat-and-mouse chase that does not let up . . . Beautifully written and breathtakingly tense, it had me gripped from start to finish PRAISE FOR ROBERT RUTHERFORD: Robert Rutherford hasn't just dipped his toes into the thriller genre; he's dived in headfirst. And the result is spectacular - a genuine edge-of-your-seat, thrill-a-minute adrenaline rush. Highly recommended An absolute rip-roaring, globetrotting, adrenaline-fuelled thriller! The jeopardy seeps from the page, and the tension keeps ratcheting up until it's almost unbearable! Surely set to be a bestseller in 2024! A race-against-time thriller that blends slick plotting with the flair of hard-boiled crime. A pacy and punchy read that will keep you thinking for seven days or more! A tense, snappy, charged thriller, with complex family relationships, a great twist halfway, and brilliant locations A cracking read. Great tension, good characterisation and a really interesting twist on a serial killer narrative. A five-star read This was as pacy as it gets, racing through the North East, Paris and New York. Tightly plotted, sharp on character, and huge in scale
