From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Family Upstairs and None of This Is True comes an “acutely observed family drama” (People) about the lingering aftermath of a young girl’s disappearance.
Ellie Mack was the perfect daughter. She was fifteen, beloved by her parents, friends, and teachers. She and her boyfriend made a teenaged golden couple. She was days away from an idyllic summer vacation, with her whole life ahead of her.
And then she was gone.
Now, her mother, Laurel Mack, is trying to put her life back together. It’s been ten years since her youngest child disappeared, seven years since her marriage ended, and only months since the last clue in Ellie’s case was unearthed. So when she meets an unexpectedly charming man in a café, no one is more surprised than Laurel at how quickly their flirtation develops into something deeper. Before she knows it, she’s meeting Floyd’s daughters—and his youngest, Poppy, takes Laurel’s breath away.
Because looking at Poppy is like looking at Ellie.
Laurel is haunted by her long unanswered questions. What happened to Ellie? Did she run away from home, as the police have long suspected? Who is Floyd, really? And why does his daughter remind Laurel so viscerally of her own missing girl?

Customers say
Customers find this book to be a compelling psychological thriller with decent plot twists and well-developed characters, particularly noting how each major character has their own distinctive voice. Moreover, the writing quality receives positive feedback, with one customer highlighting how the author explains character experiences perfectly. Customers describe it as a total page-turner that kept them entertained throughout, and one review mentions it’s written in parts. However, the pacing receives mixed reactions, with some finding it quick while others say it starts slow, and the emotional content is also mixed, with some finding it heartbreaking while others say it lacks emotional depth.
