After the dark events that scarred her childhood, Kier Templer escaped her hometown and twin to live her life on the road. They've never lost contact until, on a trip to a Portuguese national park, Kier vanishes without a trace.

The narrator did an amazing job. Usually a bit annoyed with how a book is narrated, but this was beyond expectations. She definitely did the book justice.
