A tender and sharply observant debut novel about a missing young girl--winner of the Costa First Novel Award and long-listed for the Booker Prize, the Orange Prize, and "The Guardian" First Book AwardIn the 1980s, Kate Meaney--"Top Secret" notebook and toy monkey in tow--is hard at work as a junior detective. Busy trailing "suspects" and carefully observing everything around her at the newly opened Green Oaks shopping mall, she forms an unlikely friendship with Adrian, the son of a local shopkeeper. But when this curious, independent-spirited young girl disappears, Adrian falls under suspicion and is hounded out of his home by the press. Then, in 2003, Adrian's sister Lisa--stuck in a dead-end relationship--is working as a manager at Your Music, a discount record store. Every day she tears her hair out at the outrageous behavior of her customers and colleagues. But along with a security guard, Kurt, she becomes entranced by the little girl glimpsed on the mall's surveillance cameras. As their after-hours friendship intensifies, Lisa and Kurt investigate how these sightings might be connected to the unsettling history of Green Oaks itself. Written with warmth and wit, "What Was Lost" is a haunting debut from an incredible new talent.

评分从头到尾一直是带着作者提出的疑问去读的 可是到最后才发现这不是一本悬疑小说啊 所以一直期待一直期待 就显得这本书繁琐 似乎抓不到主题 但是看完从他只是一本小说来看 其实作者在表达 每个人物的内心情感方面像自我追求 信念 包括反映的社会问题 都可以清楚的思考到 但...

评分带着很大的好奇去读这本书,后来发现故事不是像宣传的那样,呵呵! 怪不得作者一开始很难发表呀!文章的行文情节确实粗看起来不够精彩和吸引人。
