Books with title Missing Girl

Hen is eleven and on the run. Something bad happened to Mum at Easter and now she's gone, she's missing. That's when things go wrong, you see: when something important's missing. Dad knows what's happened, or he's got a good idea, and that's why he and Hen are now running, so that they don't go missing, too. Missing joins Hen and Dad just as they can run no further and, though they don't know it, danger is catching up... It's about hiding in museums and on building sites, in ditches and on canals, hoping that the hideous rasping breathing you can hear will walk on by. It's about making friends when you don't know who you can trust. It's about looking behind the everyday world and seeing what goes on beneath. It's about running and not getting caught. Hen's story starts here. Missing is the first episode in the Auriga Command series; it's Hen's first steps in solving the mystery of what happened to Mum, and to fixing it. Who is Hen? Hen is everyone and anyone. Hen could be you. I'd be thrilled if Hen were your hero. Can I read Missing? Missing is for anyone aged nine and up who likes mysteries, adventures and righting wrongs. It's the things that scare and amaze us all, written for real. There are worse and more wonderful things in the world than wizards and master criminals, and they live next door. There are over 67,000 words, some of them really good ones. A few I made up myself. Missing starts a journey that will take you everywhere.
