Its central tension links Janie’s attempt to reclaim her future with the return of the person who disrupted her family, while also returning to her relationship with Reeve. This concluding volume ties together the series’ concerns with identity, family bonds, and the lasting reach of the past.

Book overview

The riveting conclusion to Cooney's beloved JANIE series, all will be revealed as readers find out if Janie and Reeve's love has endured, and whether or not the person who brought Janie and her family so much emotional pain and suffering is brought to justice.

Ever since Janie Johnson recognized her own face on the back of a milk carton and discovered she'd been kidnapped as a child, she's tried to reclaim her life. Now, as she heads off to college, she's desperate for one thing: a fresh start.

But someone else is starting over too. Janie's kidnapper has been hiding for years and is just as desperate to become a new person--and more determined than ever to seek revenge.

As the past and present collide, Janie must face the person who changed her life forever. Will the truth finally bring justice? Can Janie and Reeve survive everything they've endured? And how do you move forward when your entire life began with a lie?

This riveting finale to Caroline B. Cooney's beloved JANIE series.
