From the back cover:

Ever since the day her classmate Jenny-May Butler vanished, Sandy Shortt has been haunted by what happens when something - or someone - disappears. Finding has become her goal.

Jack Ruttle is desperate to find his younger brother Donal who vanished into thin air a year ago. So when he spots an ad for Sandy's missing persons agency, he's certain that she will answer his prayers and find his missing brother.

But then Sandy disappears too, stumbling upon a place that is a world away from the only one she has ever known. Now all she wants, more than anything, is to find her way home.

Another book from Maarit, thank you!

It was nearly like a children's book with quite a simple language and storyline. And yes, I still liked it. A lot of unanswered questions though - as the photo really existed, Here was not just imagination? What (and where) was it then?

Nice, light read, perfect for lazy summer days :)

I'm sending the book to Cross-patch, who chose it from the First Sentences Virtual Bookbox.

"Jenny-May Butler, the little girl who lived across the road from me, went missing when I was a child.

This is one of the nicest things about BookCrossing; I would never have picked up a book by Cecelia Ahern, but here I am, truly excited about receiving A Place Called Here from Piiku. Thank you so much for the surprise and I am really looking forward to reading this book.

It has taken a long time, I know, but at last I have read this strangely fascinating book. It was not at all what I imagined, and I grew into it over time. This has taught me one thing; not to let the cover and preconceptions about an author stay your hand when it hovers over the book itself! I had to disengage belief, but it was worth it. I wonder if this is Cecelia Ahern's normal mode, in which case I'll give her another go. Thank you Pliku.
