The episode referenced the book as a follow‑up to a previous work, noting that it introduced a new suspect named Harry Phipps and spurred renewed public interest in the case.

Episode: MISSING: The Beaumont Children
It was the follow-up book to 'Searching for the Beaumont Children', introducing a new suspect, Harry Phipps, based on a years-long investigation.
According to Alan Whitaker and Stuart Mullins' book called Searching for the Beaumont Children and their follow-up The Satin Man, the police spring into action right away.
Their findings become another book which they titled The Satin Man which we've also referenced throughout this episode.
Now the title of the book refers to a brand new suspect the Satin Man and the Satin Man is Angela's ex-father-in-law.
According to the Satin Man book police say that they've already reviewed their evidence and talked to Harry's widow which was his second wife and found that she's a dead end but Alan and Stuart decide to talk to her anyways.
Once the Satin Man is published in 2013 even more people come forward and once again this kind of stirs like all of the public interest it's completely renewed and this time all the renewed interest like they actually have a person of interest in their sites and they can maybe now use new technology to try and locate the children.
