A missing friend, a cold case, and a summer of secrets

In Clearwater Ridge, Paige’s summers have meant waterfalls, parties, and time with her best friend Audrey Covington. But Audrey disappeared the previous summer, joining a troubling pattern of missing girls, and the case has stalled. When Paige finds a secret in Audrey’s room, she and Dylan begin investigating the people around them, uncovering information the police have not found. The mystery links a close friendship and a local disappearance to the hidden lives of the town’s vacationing families. Paige’s search for answers also carries a personal risk: the missing-girl cases may not be safely in the past.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young adult readers interested in mystery and detective fiction.
  • Readers who enjoy stories about missing-person cases and amateur investigations.
  • Readers drawn to secrets within affluent vacation communities and close friendships under strain.

Book overview

"Crackling and propulsive." --Publishers Weekly, starred review

From the author of Dead Girls Can't Tell Secrets and They're Watching You, a compelling new thriller!

Last summer, they searched for Audrey Covington.

This summer, they'll search for the truth.

Paige Redmond has always felt lucky to spend her summers in Clearwater Ridge, with lazy days sunning at the waterfalls and nights partying at the sprawling houses of the rich families who vacation there. The Covingtons are one of these families, and beautiful, brilliant Audrey Covington is Paige's best friend. And last year, when Audrey's crush-worthy brother Dylan finally started noticing Paige, she was sure it would be the best summer ever.

Except Audrey didn't seem quite like herself. Then one night, she didn't come home. Though Audrey wasn't the first girl to disappear in Clearwater Ridge, she left behind more lies than clues. Now, one summer later, her case has gone cold, and nobody, least of all Paige, can make sense of what happened.

When Paige stumbles across a secret hidden in Audrey's room, however, it changes everything she thought she knew about last summer. She and Dylan set out on their own investigation, discovering things even the police don't know about the people of Clearwater Ridge. But tracking down missing girls--girls who might be beyond saving by now--means entering a world far darker than Paige has ever imagined. And if she isn't careful, she'll become the next girl to vanish.
