No One Saw is the second book in the A.L. McKittridge series, following Ten Days Gone (read my review).  The book opens with A.L. returning from vacation in time to get pulled into the investigation, and we hit the ground running right along with him and Rena. There are some pieces of their personal lives, but it's less than the first one. More of the story is focused on digging into the family members, the neighbors, the daycare workers, and then ties to a similar disappearance that had occurred in another city ten years ago. There are a lot of blind alleys that their investigation takes them, much like real-life investigations.

A.L. and Rena are determined investigators, and their dogged ability to keep going and make connections is what helps them find out what happened. It's a tense novel from start to finish, and one that I couldn't put down until I finished it.
