As a crackling bonfire burns to ash, the popular, gifted, and wildly beautiful Cadie McLeod waves goodbye to high school friends, leaves the beach, and enters the dark, isolated Scenic Trail. All she wants is to retrieve her bike and head home to the warmth and safety of Aunt Marie's cottage. The young woman is nervous about the truck that parks outside late at night and the strange letter in her mailbox that said, "Don't worry. It will all be over soon."

Then, seconds later, like an evening breeze blowing across shifting sands, Cadie is gone. Horrifically, the 18-year-old goes missing from the dunes the same night her mom and dad were brutally murdered six years ago - their killer never caught. Thomas and Aileen were run down in brutal fashion as they walked hand in hand on deserted coastal highway M-22 along Michigan's west coast to get ice cream. Suddenly, a car lying in wait accelerates and, at fifty miles per hour, plows into them, obliterating the happy 35-year-olds. Now, in this gripping mystery novel, Cadie must escape her abductor if she's going to live and solve the mystery of her parents' grisly deaths - murders for reasons no one could imagine.

This psychological thriller about the disappearance of an empowered young woman quickly evolves into a gripping battle for survival and harrowing journey through the mind of a sociopath. Set in a sleepy northern Michigan beach town, where serene beauty collides with nature's fierce power, this mystery novel masterfully balances suspense, emotion, and an ever-present danger of evil lurking beneath the surface. This suspense novel takes readers on a thrilling ride up the coast of dazzling - and sometimes deadly - West Michigan as they learn Cadie's fate and the mystery of her parents' killing.
