"When she disappeared from her rural hometown, Wendy White was a sweet, family-oriented girl, who had recently moved out on her own. It happens all the time - a woman goes missing, a family mourns, and the case remains unsolved. Stacy Flynn is a reporter looking for her big break. Five months after she disappeared, Wendy’s body is found in a ditch just off one of Haeden’s main roads. Suddenly, Flynn has a big story, but no one wants to talk to her. No one seems to think that Wendy’s killer could still be among them. Fifteen-year-old Alice Piper is an imaginative student with a genius IQ and strong ideals. When Alice reads Flynn’s passionate article in the Haeden Free Press about violence against women—about the staggering number of women who are killed each day by people they know—she begins to connect the dots of Wendy’s disappearance and death, leading her to make a choice: join the rest in turning a blind eye, or risk getting involved. As Flynn and Alice separately observe the locals’ failure to acknowledge a murderer in their midst, Alice’s fate is forever entwined with Wendy’s when a second crime rocks the town to its core" --Publisher's description.
