A Mysterious Review of …
Fortune's Deadly Descent by Audrey Braun. A Celia Hagen, Fortune Mystery.
Review summary: As with any story that involves a child gone missing, this is an unsettling novel of suspense. But it is more of a retelling of the actions of the missing child's mother and events in which she finds herself than a mystery per se. Still, it is exciting and fast-paced.

Fortune's Deadly Descent
Audrey Braun
A Celia Hagen, Fortune Mystery
Thomas & Mercer (September 2012)
Publisher synopsis: Memories of her dire past fade as Celia Hagen enjoys life in Switzerland as a best-selling author, surrounded by an extended family, her beloved Benicio, and their imaginative young son Benny. But when Benny disappears from a train during an unexpected stop in the French Provencal countryside, Celia suspects her past may not be buried after all. With Benny gone, she quickly realizes her life wasn't nearly as idyllic as she believed. Infuriated by the unorthodox search efforts of Interpol and the French police, Celia, along with her older son Oliver, undertakes her own search, only to find that the village where Benny vanished has its own chilling history, and her interference in the case will have grave and irreversible consequences.
