Since Sandy Shortt's childhood schoolmate disappeared twenty years ago, Sandy has been obsessed with missing things. Finding becomes her goal - whether it's the odd sock that vanished in the washing machine, the car keys she misplaced in her rush to get to work or the graver issue of finding the people who vanish from their lives. Sandy dedicates her life to finding these missing people, offering devastated families a flicker of hope. Jack Ruttle is one of those desperate people. It's been a year since his brother, Donal vanished into thin air and the sleepless nights and frantic days aren't getting any easier. Thinking Sandy Shortt could well be the answer to his prayers, he embarks on a quest to find her. But, when Sandy goes missing too, her search ends when she stumbles upon the place - and people - she's been looking for all of her life. A world away from her loved ones and the home she ran from for so long, Sandy soon resorts to her old habit again, searching. Though this time, she is desperately trying to find her way home!

 

Have you ever lost something and no matter how much you search for it, you just can not find it, well after reading 'A Place Called Here' by Cecelia Ahern, all that wondering about where certain items have went missing will make sense. Sandy Shortt finds the place where everyone who has ever been lost ends up, where every lost item goes, a place called here.

 

The story begins with the disappearance of Sandy Shortt's class mate, Jenny May Butler when she is 10 years old. Jenny-May becomes the perfect child overnight, the missing child, no trace, no leads, she has just disappeared and so Sandy Shortt's quest for answers begins....

 

'A Place Called Here' reads well, and initially you will not like Sandy Shortt at all, but as the story progresses, she grows on you, you understand her better, the reason behind her obsession over finding all things lost. Sad and touching at the same time, A Place Called Here is a lovely book and you actually feel satisified when you get to the end of it.
