About This Book

The sharp scent of pine fills the air as Amy steps cautiously through the forest, every crunch of twigs underfoot echoing in the quiet. Six years have passed since she and her cousin Dee vanished, but now Amy is back—and the shadows seem to whisper danger. Protecting her family feels heavier than ever, but she won’t let anything tear them apart again.
