A disappearance returns to the center of a family mystery

Twenty-five years after Chloe Webster vanished on the night two friends were murdered at an isolated hot spring, she turns up at the memorial held for her each year. Her cousin Frankie, who never stopped hoping Chloe was alive, now faces a reunion complicated by Chloe’s lack of memory and messages hinting at withheld knowledge. The novel’s psychological suspense grows from that collision between a long-held belief, an unexpected return, and unanswered questions about a night that shaped the family’s past. Its central tension asks how far Frankie should go to uncover what happened—and what the truth might cost.

Book overview

Perfect for fans of Noelle Ihli and Stacy Willingham, this chilling, riveting thriller unravels the dark secrets behind Chloe Webster's disappearance and her shocking return twenty-five years later, as her cousin Frankie races to uncover a truth more terrifying than she could imagine.

 

Chloe Webster is supposed to be dead.

 

She vanished twenty-five years ago-the night her two friends were brutally murdered at an isolated hot springs. At least...that's what everyone believes.

 

Everyone except Chloe's cousin, Frankie, who never gave up hope that she was alive.

 

When Chloe unexpectedly shows up at her own annual memorial event, Frankie is overjoyed. But this isn't the reunion she had imagined. Chloe has no memory of that night in 1999-or her life before her disappearance.

 

Then Frankie starts getting cryptic messages that imply Chloe knows more than she's letting on. Frankie wants to trust her cousin, but even more, she wants answers to the questions that have plagued her for decades.

 

But what if the truth is worse than she could possibly imagine? Is it worth uncovering it at any cost?
