The most popular French missing persons books

Someone vanishes, and the search begins. In these books a child, a wife or a friend disappears without a trace, and the people left behind refuse to give up. Novels and true cases alike are driven by one question: what happened? The answers are rarely simple. Only books in French are listed.
