Publisher's Synopsis
"One of the most compelling psychological thrillers I've read in a long time...grabs you from the very first page and does not loosen its grip." ---Alison Gaylin, bestselling author of What Remains of Me While her father lies dying in a hospital north of New York City, FBI Agent Elsa Myers answers the NYPD's call to assist in the search for Ruby, a teenage girl abducted from Forest Hills, Queens. Throughout the critical first hours of the case, a series of false leads obscures the fact that Ruby was taken by a serial offender--and that her life may not be the only one in danger. With each passing hour, Elsa's carefully compartmentalized world collapses around her. Everything that she has buried--her fraught relationship with her sister and niece, her self-destructive past, her mother's death--threatens to resurface, with devastating consequences.
