Don't Look for Me: A Novel

A New York Public Library Best Book of the Year
From the bestselling author of All Is Not Forgotten comes Wendy Walker's Don't Look for Me--a compelling and emotionally powerful story of a daughter's desperate search to find her mother before it's too late.
They said she walked away. But what really happened to Molly Clarke?
They called it a “walk away.” The car abandoned miles from home. The note found at a nearby hotel. The shattered family. It happens all the time. Women disappear, desperate to start over. But what really happened to Molly Clarke?
The night Molly disappeared began with a storm, running out of gas, and a man offering her a ride to safety. But when the doors lock shut, Molly begins to suspect she has made a terrible mistake.
A new lead brings Molly’s daughter, Nicole, back to the small, desolate town where her mother was last seen to renew the desperate search. The locals are sympathetic and eager to help. The innkeeper. The bartender. Even the police. Until secrets begin to reveal themselves and Nicole comes closer to the truth about that night—and the danger surrounding her.
