Kate McCann

You won't find a more moving and powerful account of love and loss

<i>Madeleine </i>is not only an impressive and well-written chronicle of a terrible crime, it is a must-read because someone out there knows something

Powerful... Kate's book blazes with the sheer, visceral force of her love for her daughter

Mrs McCann writes honestly about her torment

It's hard to read these words without wanting to weep

This haunting account makes me rue the day I doubted them

It is high time the McCann haters pushed off... It seems clear that, far from self-justifying, or attention-seeking, this book is what it has always been about for the McCanns - a practical solution to fundraising

The saddest story I have ever heard... it touches levels of human agony far beyond the reach of everyday journalism

This book brought tears to my eyes several times... but despite the tragedy at the heart of the book, there are flashes of humour

(A) testament to the ferocity of maternal love

Our daughter's disappearance and the continuing search for her

'The decision to publish this book has been very difficult, and taken with heavy hearts ... My reason for writing it is simple: to give an account of the truth ... Writing this memoir has entailed recording some very personal, intimate and emotional aspects of our lives. Sharing these with strangers does not come easily to me, but if I hadn't done so I would not have felt the book gave as full a picture as it is possible for me to give. As with every action we have taken over the last five years, it ultimately boils down to whether what we are doing could help us to find Madeleine. When the answer to that question is yes, or even possibly, our family can cope with anything ... Nothing is more important to us than finding our little girl.'<br/>
