I must be missing something, but didn’t see why we needed the back story of the missing girl from a previous unsolved case.
I felt the interactions with that family lent nothing to the plot.
I thought that too, I thought there was going to be a breakthrough at the end with the new forensics, but nothing.
The character of Annie Cassidy is based on a real-life detective in Avon and Somerset who, with dogged determination, solved a cold case from the 1980s. The perpetrator was jailed.
The main story of Gone is fictional but, sadly, there are still ongoing cold cases which remain unsolved years later but this shows that they are not forgotten and the side story shows this aspect of cold cases.
