From America's Queen of Suspense comes a gripping tale of a young woman's quest to unravel a family tragedy, with terrifying repercussions. Ten years have passed since twenty-one-year-old Charles MacKenzie Jr. ("Mack") vanished without a trace from his Manhattan apartment, leaving behind a life at Columbia University and an acceptance to Duke Law School. Each year, he makes a ritual call to his mother on Mother's Day, assuring her he is fine but refusing to answer her questions. Even the death of his father in 9/11 doesn't bring him home. Now, his sister Carolyn, a law school graduate and former clerk, realizes she cannot move on without finding Mack. When he calls this year, she declares her intention to track him down, despite the warning he leaves for her uncle: "Tell Carolyn she must not look for me." Undeterred by her mother's anger and the disapproval of family friend Elliott, Carolyn's search plunges her into a world of danger and unanswered questions. What secrets do the building superintendents Gus and Lil Kramer hide? What do Mack's old roommates, Nick DeMarco and Bruce Galbraith, know about his disappearance? As Carolyn pursues the truth, she confronts a deadly secret that someone close to her is desperate to keep hidden.
