A tribute to friendship in all its guises, The Gaps is a moving examination of vulnerability and strength, safety and danger, and the particular uncertainty of being a young woman in the world. Looking over their shoulders at every turn, Chloe and Natalia must come together to cope with their fear and grief as best they can. And when she begins to form an uneasy alliance with the queen of Year Ten, Natalia, things get even more complicated. Everyone is affected by Yin’s disappearance-even scholarship student Chloe, who usually stays out of Balmoral drama, is drawn into the maelstrom. Leanne Halls recent publication, The Gaps, pries into the vulnerability, strength, safety, danger and uncertainties that young women face in the world. Police suspect the abduction is the work of a serial offender, with none in the community safe from suspicion.

As the hours tick by, the girls know the chance of Yin being found alive is becoming smaller and smaller. The Gaps is strictly realist in tone and pivots on a crime, but does not concern itself with tracking the movements nor dissecting the motivations of the perpetrator. When sixteen-year-old Yin Mitchell is abducted, the news reverberates through the whole Year Ten class at Balmoral Ladies College. What does it mean to be the one left behind?
