A teen girl and her friends must uncover long-buried secrets to save a missing girl's life in this dark and twisty standalone YA mystery from the author of the Number One bestselling Inheritance Games series.

A FORGOTTEN PAST. Kira vividly remembers the moment Cady Bennett and one of her search and rescue dogs found her as a child, living alone in the wild, with no memories of her life before. Years later, now adopted into the Bennett family, Kira has spent most of her life training in search and rescue herself.

A MISSING GIRL. So, when Cady's estranged father appears with news of a missing child out in the wilderness, Kira vows to bring the girl home.

A DARK SECRET. As the search intensifies, danger mounts and long-buried secrets begin to come to light. To find one missing child, Kira will have to question everything she thinks she knows.
