The summer Chloe Davis turned twelve, her world shattered. Six teenage girls vanished in her small Louisiana town. When Chloe searches for something in her parents’ closet, she makes a horrifying discovery that leads to the unthinkable—her father’s arrest and confession as a serial killer. Her distraught mother attempts suicide. Chloe and her seventeen-year-old brother are left to navigate life alone.
Now, twenty years later, Chloe has rebuilt her life as a successful psychologist in Baton Rouge where people don’t associate her with the gruesome past. She’s preparing for her wedding to a wonderful and loving man.
Under the surface, cracks remain. Her brother doesn’t like her fiancé. Her mother remains in a nursing home because of her failed suicide. Chloe battles addiction. And a pesky reporter is digging into the past she wants to remain forgotten.
When a girl goes missing—and then another—Chloe can’t ignore the eerie similarities to her father’s crimes. Worse, one of the victims was last seen leaving Chloe’s office. Suspicion falls her way, and Chloe begins to unravel. Is a copycat at work? Or is the past far closer than she imagined?
