A reporter searching for her kidnapped son must untangle the connection to her brotherโs long-ago disappearance in this โsharp, breathless thrillerโ (Lisa Jackson, #1ย New York Timesย bestselling author).
Thirty years ago, Julia Goodenโs nine-year-old brother Ben was abducted from their shared room. Though sheโs tried to recall any clue about what happened, she has no memory of that terrible night. Now a crime reporter at a Detroit newspaper, Julia tries to give others the closure sheโs never found.
Still, she lives in fear that whoever took her brother could come back. Nowhere seems safeโnot even the secluded lake town where she plans to raise her children. And then, on the anniversary of Benโs disappearance, Juliaโs worst fears are realized when her two-year-old son, Will, is snatched from his bed.
ย Convinced that the crimes are related, Julia tries to piece together memories from her final day with Ben. Julia knows she has hours at best to find Will alive, but the deeper she digs, the more personal and terrifying the battle becomes.
โA gripping story that I read in one nightโI could not put it down.โ โDebbie Howells, author ofย The Bones of You
