Prompted by his childhood in Glasgow during the time of the Bible John murders, O’Hagan has explored the lives of those who have gone missing and how it has affected those who were left behind. Cutting through both tabloid-style sensationalism and overly dry reporting. The Missing is an eloquent and thoughtful dissection of late 20th century society. Thanks to Picador. we have twenty copies of O'Hagan's book to
