When 10-year old Lucy disappears, her family is devastated, but over time, they accept the possibility that Lucy may no longer be alive. Not so Leah, Lucy's older sister - she's convinced Lucy is still alive somewhere. Especially after some weird dreams and a computer message, in which Lucy tries to tell her where she is.
The story is told from Leahs POV, but also from Sylvia's - a woman who may know who's behind all the kidnappings. When other kids disappeared several years ago, Sylvia started some investigation of her own, where she stumbled upon a shocking secret connected to her own past. Now she may be the only chance Lucy has to survive. But is she willing to reveal her secrets?
I liked the change in POV and the different timelines, which created a complex abduction mystery. However, several times the plot took some implausible turns, especially when I learned who the culprit and his motives were and what Sylvia was inexcusably hiding all the time. However, that didn't stop me from turning the pages of this suspenseful thriller, both hoping and fearing with Leah about her sister's fate.
