" Defiance sprang up in me. A shadow flickered across her face. Then she changed her tone to a menacingly sweet one. A chill crept down my spine. " Refuse? There's no such word in this house. Ah Lek! " A burly man entered in response to her call, grinning evilly. " Ah Lek deals with any naughty girl who refuses. Ah Lek ." Ah Lek moved towards me silently. There was a cigarette dangling between his fingers. A gleam of pleasure lighted up his face as he yanked up my right leg. I was shocked beyond words. He threw my shoe across the room and pressed the burning end of the cigarette against the sole of my foot. I screamed as pain shot through me. It was excruciating. " Alright, Ah Lek. You may go. " I whimpered at the burning pain in my foot. All defiance died and I slumped in defeat as Ma Chieh's cold voice rang out. " I'm sure you will be more discreet. Remember, the next time will be worse. Put this on your foot and change into this. " She locked the door behind her and left me to my despair. I put the salve on my sole. It relieved the pain. Then I changed into the silk kimono, a lovely pink with cherry blossoms. A sense of utter helplessness overcame me. Oh God! Was this really happening to me? I pinched myself. It hurt. There was nothing I could do except wait for this mysterious visitor. Perhaps he could even help me out of this. It was no use crying. The hours ticked endlessly by and the day turned into night. I sat on the bed, all keyed up. Terror and despair engulfed me as I waited for whatever was to come. At last footsteps echoed in the corridor. Find out what happens to Su who has been sold by her aunt's son upon her death.

Book excerpt: A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice • A page-turning mystery that brings to life a complex and strong-willed detective assigned to a high-risk missing persons case NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY NPR • NAMED ONE OF THE 10 BEST MYSTERIES OF THE YEAR BY THE WALL STREET JOURNAL “An extraordinarily assured police procedural in the tradition of Ruth Rendell and Elizabeth George.”—Joseph Finder, author of The Fixer “Surprise-filled . . . one of the most ambitious police procedurals of the year. Detective Bradshaw’s biting wit is a bonus.”—The Wall Street Journal “Missing, Presumed has future BBC miniseries written all over it.”—Redbook “A highly charismatic and engaging story.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “This combination of police procedural and an unfolding family drama that continuously twists and turns will work well for fans of Kate Atkinson and Tana French.”—Booklist At thirty-nine, Manon Bradshaw is a devoted and respected member of the Cambridgeshire police force, and though she loves her job, what she longs for is a personal life. Single and distant from her family, she wants a husband and children of her own. One night, after yet another disastrous Internet date, she turns on her police radio to help herself fall asleep—and receives an alert that sends her to a puzzling crime scene. Edith Hind—a beautiful graduate student at Cambridge University and daughter of the surgeon to the Royal Family—has been missing for nearly twenty-four hours. Her home offers few clues: a smattering of blood in the kitchen, her keys and phone left behind, the front door ajar but showing no signs of forced entry. Manon instantly knows that this case will be big—and that every second is crucial to finding Edith alive. The investigation starts with Edith’s loved ones: her attentive boyfriend, her reserved best friend, her patrician parents. As the search widens and press coverage reaches a frenzied pitch, secrets begin to emerge about Edith’s tangled love life and her erratic behavior leading up to her disappearance. With no clear leads, Manon summons every last bit of her skill and intuition to close the case, and what she discovers will have shocking consequences not just for Edith’s family but for Manon herself. Suspenseful and keenly observed, Missing, Presumed is a brilliantly twisting novel of how we seek connection, grant forgiveness, and reveal the truth about who we are. Praise for Missing, Presumed “Smart, stylish . . . Manon is portrayed with an irresistible blend of sympathy and snark. By the time she hits bottom, professionally and privately, we’re entirely caught up in her story.”—The New York Times Book Review “Nuanced suspense that’s perfect for Kate Atkinson fans.”—People “Drenched in character and setting, with pinpoint detail that breathes life and color into every sentence.”—The News & Observer “You might come to Missing, Presumed for the police procedural; you’ll stay for the layered, authentic characters that Steiner brings to life.”—Bethanne Patrick, NPR “Where [Susie] Steiner excels is in the depth and clarity with which she depicts her characters. . . . It all adds up to a world that feels much bigger than the novel in which it is contained.”—The Guardian
