Publisher's Synopsis
Something lurking in the woods threatens to destroy an entire town in Sarah Langan's brilliantly crafted second novel.

Preoccupied by the betrayal of her fiancé she never even notices when little James Walker doesn't get back on the bus and suddenly the quiet, prosperous town of Corpus Christi is plunged into tragedy and united in shock.
