I first heard about this story on a YouTube channel called "MrBallen" and I wanted to know more, so I finally got the ebook and began reading.
It's a good book, written well, with lots of personal details from Elizabeth Southall, Rachel's mother. My one and only problem with it is this one part, when she and Rachel's father are still waiting to find out if she was hurt, dead, or only a runaway:
"Mike moved closer. He was aroused. Oh no, I thought. ... Michael's hand came round & squeezed my nipple. I was so weary. Mike was weary. Too tired for sleep. Oh, Rachel, I thought, as her father gently entered me. "This will relax you," whispered Mike."

Sooooo many things went through my mind reading that passage. First of all, I don't think it was necessary for people to know details of their sex life. Secondly, I know everyone grieves or releases stress in different ways, so I'm really not trying to "shame" them for having sex, I just don't personally think that if one of my beloved daughters was missing, that sex would be anywhere in my thoughts or desires at that point. There's no way that I could be *that* worried about my child, yet still be horny. But even if I did- I don't see why anyone else would need to be made aware of it. The inclusion of this little "interlude" seems ill-fitting with the subject matter, and frankly, off-putting to me as a reader. I read this to find out the details of precisely who killed Rachel Barber, why she did it, and how she was caught. I'm not particularly interested in reading about the dad squeezing the mom's nipple, or about the mom thinking of her daughter at the moment the dad "gently entered" her. It gave me the ick, to be honest.
