The Vanishing Hour: A Gripping Thriller of Uncovering the Suspicious Lives and Dark Truths of a Small Town

Grace Holloway runs a small inn in Rock Harbor, Maine, after narrowly escaping death from a man who kidnapped her years ago. The isolated, quiet location allows her to keep her own secrets away from others. When young women begin disappearing from the town—girls who resemble Grace as she was during her kidnapping—an investigation brings unwanted attention to her door. Grace finds herself at the center of the case, though she tries to maintain distance. She possesses knowledge about the disappearances that could prove significant, but revealing it may demand more than she can handle alone. Seraphina Nova Glass, Edgar Award–nominated author of On a Quiet Street, explores secrets and the measures people take to protect them in this thriller set in a small Maine town.
