— Review of All the Missing Children Zahid Gamieldien , 2024 single work novel

'Zahid Gamieldien’s All the Missing Children has all the makings of an archetypal crime mystery. Two siblings, eight-year-old Jack and six-year-old Lonnie, have disappeared. There’s a detective covertly on the case—suspended police officer Omar Dualeh, who takes matters into his own hands because he’s convinced their vanishing is connected to the abduction of a different pair of siblings several years earlier.' (Introduction)
