Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer mysteries that play fair with clues and evidence from the start rather than ones that hold back crucial information.

About this book

Two sisters, Caitlin and Olivia, are excited to stay home alone for the first time. While they sleep, someone opens the back door, and their lives change forever. Olivia disappears that night. Sixteen years later, Olivia returns. Her parents want to believe the ordeal is over, but Caitlin is skeptical. The woman claiming to be her sister has different memories of that night, and both sisters are hiding secrets that could destroy their family. As their accounts conflict, the question becomes: which daughter can be trusted? This psychological thriller by Dandy Smith centers on the mystery of what really happened that night and the lies that have kept the family apart for over a decade.
