From the bestselling author of the Sweet Tea Tuesdays and Only One Life comes a suspenseful story of three women who, in search of freedom from the lies that bind them, experience personal growth, discovery, and forgiveness.
Ten years ago, Reese Carpenter disappeared from the scene of a single-car accident that claimed her father's life. First responders to the accident saw no evidence of her, and she's been neither seen nor heard from since. Fast forward to the present and Reese's mother, Eva, is still holding out hope her daughter is still alive.
On a snowy Sunday in early March, Eva befriends her new across-the-street neighbor, Maggie, confiding in Maggie about her missing daughter. Eva's story intrigues Maggie, an investigative journalist, and when Maggie's new husband's controlling behavior turns abusive, she uses the investigation of Reese's disappearance as an opportunity to go undercover.
In this fast-paced captivating novel, Maggie takes readers on a roller-coaster ride of emotion as she travels from Virginia to a college campus in Ohio to Washington DC, unraveling the secrets of the dysfunctional family that drove a young woman to a desperate act of survival.
