Its not that they've been all that close in the past few years, but sisters Willa and Sawyer Stannard are bonded by the ups and downs of the life they've lived with their mercurial single mother. When Willa is found dead in her apartment from an apparent suicide, Sawyer just knows its not possible. A cryptic note from the acclaimed broadcast journalist leads police to rule out foul play. Shattered by grief - and obsessed by the idea that her sisters death was not a suicide - Sawyer plunges into a search for the truth. When Sawyer learns that Willa was writing an explosive true crime book about the decades-old disappearance of a toddler that rocked a small town hundreds of miles away, she's even more convinced that Willa's death is suspicious. Believing it is somehow connected to the research Willa was doing for the book, Sawyer begins to trace her sisters steps, deep into a community she can't begin to understand and to a truth that could destroy her as easily as it did Willa. --,adapted from jacket
