Commonalities among these books include the theme of child abduction, the race against time to find missing children, the uncovering of dark secrets and dangerous conspiracies during investigations, the emotional toll on families and investigators involved in such cases, and the use of psychological thrillers to heighten suspense. Many of these books also feature strong female protagonists who are determined to find missing children at any cost. The settings vary from small towns to big cities, and from historical periods to modern times.
