A single mother's life spirals out of control when her best friend mysteriously disappears in this chilling debut thriller. It begins with a simple favor: glamorous Emily asks Stephanie to pick up her son after school, and Stephanie happily agrees. Emily's seemingly perfect life—complete with a dazzling career and a picture-perfect family—leaves Stephanie, a lonely widow in their Connecticut suburb, feeling envious. As she seeks connection through her daily blog, the sudden disappearance of Emily sends shockwaves through her life. Concerned for Emily's grieving family, Stephanie becomes entangled with Sean, Emily's handsome British husband. However, she can't shake the feeling that he may not be telling her the whole truth about his wife's vanishing. As doubts creep in, Stephanie questions how well she truly knew her "best" friend. The story reveals that nothing—friendship, love, or even a simple favor—is as straightforward as it appears. This taut, unsettling narrative exposes the dark underbelly of female friendship, keeping readers captivated until the very last page.
