From rising star Jessica Goodman comes a fast-paced thriller about two sisters competing for the top spot on their cross-country team, the only escape from their stifling small town. Their dreams are jeopardized when a new girl threatens to take away everything they've worked for—until she disappears. Stella and Ellie Steckler, just a year apart, have a complicated relationship shaped by their contrasting personalities. Stella is fiercely driven and focused solely on running, while Ellie, also a talented runner, enjoys a more balanced life with friends and parties. Their lives are disrupted by the arrival of Mila Keene, a top runner from her previous school. Initially seen as a threat, Mila's warm and charming personality draws Ellie in, especially after her best friend moves away and her first boyfriend betrays her. In a moment of vulnerability, Ellie confides her darkest secret to Mila. Meanwhile, Stella finds herself relating to Mila's strength and intelligence, leading her to become distracted from her goals. With regionals approaching and college scouts watching, the pressure mounts. Each sister's future hangs in the balance, and they’re determined not to let friendships interfere. Then, during a training run, Mila vanishes without a trace, leaving the Steckler sisters under scrutiny as the mystery unfolds.
