Penguin presents the audio book edition of The Missing Sister by Dinah Jefferies, read by Anna Bentinck.

Belle Hatton is a beautiful young girl living in Gloucestershire, who's never been further East than Paris. But when her father dies, she finds a mysterious newspaper clipping from Burma, 1911 buried among his belongings - a clipping that says the Hattons were leaving Rangoon after the disappearance of their baby daughter, Elvira. How could her parents have kept this from her for so long? Was her sister really dead? And could there be a chance that Belle might find her?

Before she knows it Belle is boarding a ship to Rangoon, alone, with no idea what she will find when she gets there...
Dinah Jefferies has a remarkable gift for conjuring up another time and place with lush descriptions, full of power and intensity.
