For adam, at least there’s comfort in knowing that Mason County detective Lee Husemann is an old friend of his. Unfortunately, beyond what they’ve heard in the news, they’re in the dark when it comes to Sophie’s disappearance. Lee suspects that not everyone is telling the truth about what they know—or they have yet to reveal all the lies they’ve hidden from the strangers they married.

The lives of the two couples are converging in unpredictable ways, and the picture is unsettling. But on adam’s first day out on the water, he sees Sophie abducted by a stranger. She’ll do everything she can to help. She must. But as adam’s paranoia about his missing wife escalates, Lee puts together the pieces of a puzzle.

And Sophie disappears. In a nearby cabin is another couple, Kristen and Connor Moss.

From the amazon charts and #1 new york Times bestselling author comes a psychological thriller exploring the things we dare to do when no one is looking.

They appear to have it all—security, happiness, and a beautiful young son, Charlie. Then charlie vanishes without a trace, and all that seemed safe is shattered by a tragedy that is incomprehensible—except to Liz. It took one fleeting moment for her to change the lives of everyone she loves—a heartrending accident that can’t be undone.
