Publisher's summary

Sometimes danger comes from the most unexpected places.

Gwen Proctor has always been willing to do anything it takes to protect her kids. But there are some things even she can’t protect them from. When a violent incident at Connor’s school brings the press to Gwen’s doorstep, she agrees to take a case out of town hoping to keep her family out of the crushing media spotlight.

The case is that of a missing girl, last seen getting into a truck with a stranger before disappearing. Gwen has a reputation for finding those who are lost, but this time something is wrong. Her instincts are off, and every clue she uncovers only raises more doubts, not just about the missing girl and the circumstances of her disappearance, but also about the fragile safety Gwen’s created for her family.

The closer she comes to uncovering the truth, the more she unwittingly puts those she loves at risk. Someone from Gwen’s past doesn’t appreciate the new life she’s built for herself and is willing to do anything it takes to tear it apart. Except this time it isn’t Gwen in the crosshairs, but her partner Sam. Without her instincts to rely on, how can Gwen protect those she loves against an enemy she never sees coming?

Critic reviews

An Amazon Charts and #1 Wall Street Journal best-selling series.

Loved this book finished it in a day !!!

Loved how Carrie took over this series seamlessly she honored all of Rachel’s characters and maintained their essence while writing something very entertaining can’t wait for more of Carrie’s book belonging to this series

Suspenseful until the end!

Another great mystery by Rachel Cain. I loved learning that Carrie Ryan finished this book for her.

The series itself is so good!

I’m so glad this series has carried on. Carrie did an amazing job, and I can’t wait to read the next one!!

Another good one

Another nail biter that kept me on the edge of my seat. Love this series

Another great listen

Another great listen. Good story, enjoyable narration (except I did miss the voice of Sam). Hopefully there will be another book to follow this one.

Incredible

This book is sooo good. I love the fact that it was fast paced.
The voice acting was amazing as well. She did a great job doing different voice.
I love this series and hope it continues.

Another hit!!!!

Loved it! Did not need all of the other narrators to make this a number one audiobook! You have made Rachel Caine proud! I’m already looking forward to the next book! 

The Southern accent is embarrassingly bad

Good fast-paced story, nice addition to a great series. But I suggest you get the Kindle or paper version. Audio is not the way to go here.

You'd think if the story takes take place in Tennessee and North Carolina, Audible would find someone who knows how to do an appropriate accent. The narrator doesn't need to nail the accent down to a small radius, but seriously, could they at least get the century right? This is not the 1840s.

It makes me cringe every time there's a "Southern" accent in a book and the default is to make every man sound like a cartoonish John Wayne and every woman sound like Scah-lette O'Hara entertaining suitors on the plantation. The south of the US stretches thousands of miles, from cowboyish Arizona across to Alabama and then all the way up into Virginia. With that much southern real estate in question, you'd have to imagine a one-size-fits-all accent wouldn't do, and here is a perfect example of it not working. In the UK, accents change every 20 miles, and people honor the distinctions. Why not here?

Such a great series!

I listened back to back not knowing Rachel passed. I was heartbroken to learn the news and had to purchase Trapper road to complete the saga. I found myself personally increased in Gwen’s story and could totally relate to her need to protect her kids. She’s a hero in my eyes. I would definitely recommend this series. RIP Rachel Caine

What a great read.

What a wonder dedication to Rachel from Carrie.

As always enjoy her books they are a good on the edge of your seat read!! Keep it up
