[8]Your daughter doesn’t come home one night from her summer
job. You go there looking for her. No one’s seen her. But
it’s worse than that.
No one’s ever seen her. So where has she been going every
day? And where is she now?
In Linwood Barclay’s riveting new thriller, an ordinary
man’s desperate search for his daughter leads him into a dark
world of corruption, exploitation, and murder. Tim Blake is about
to learn that the people you think you know best are the ones
harboring the biggest secrets.
Tim is an average guy. He sells cars. He has an ex-wife.
She’s moved in with a man whose moody son spends more time
online than he should. His girlfriend is turning out to be a bit of
a flake. It’s not a life without hassles, but nothing will
prepare Tim for the nightmare that’s about to begin.
Sydney vanishes into thin air. At the hotel where she supposedly
worked, no one has ever heard of her. Even her closest friends seem
to be at a loss. Now, as the days pass without word, Tim must face
the fact that not only is Sydney missing, but that the daughter
he’s loved and thought he knew is a virtual stranger.
As he retraces Sydney’s steps, Tim discovers that the
suburban Connecticut town he always thought of as idyllic is
anything but. What he doesn’t know is that his every move is
being watched. There are others who want to find Syd as much as Tim
does.
But they’re not planning a Welcome Home party.
The closer Tim comes to the truth, the closer he comes to every
parent’s worst nightmare --- and the kind of evil only a
parent’s love has a chance in hell of stopping.
