Anna, a veteran missing persons detective in San Francisco, is hit with a family tragedy and seeks refuge in the Mendocino area where she grew up. When a teenage girl goes missing in her hometown, Anna is reminded of an unsolved murder of a young girl during her childhood. Is there a connection? If your book club enjoyed Liz Moore's Long Bright River (or even her recent hit God of the Woods), this might be a good book club pick for your group!”
