She opened the bag and saw that it was full of brown toffees, like her grandpa used to give to her. The man told her she could have a toffee, for being such a good girl. She told him mummy didn't let her eat sweets before dinner, but he said one toffee wouldn't hurt, and they could keep it a secret between them; mummy didn't need to know.

Approximately one hundred and fifty thousand children go missing in the U.K. every year. That’s one child every three and a half minutes.
ABDUCTION
Every parent’s worst nightmare: seven year-old Natalie Barrett is abducted while walking home from school. The police begin a desperate hunt to find her before it is too late. They fear the worst when a body is located near a golf course.
THE FALLOUT
