Some secrets don't stay buried. Especially when the girl who held them disappears. When eighteen years old Kailany Maddox vanishes after a bonfire in the coastal town of Ashton Shores, the community is quick to label it a runaway.

Detective Cassidy Keene, still recovering from a case that nearly destroyed her, is brought in to cut through the silence the locals refuse to break. As she pieces together Kailany's final days, Cassidy is forced to confront demons of her own. Each truth uncovered pulls Cassidy deeper into a web of obsession, betrayal, and grief.
