“Lapena is a master of manipulation.” —USA Today


Welcome to Stanhope. A safe neighborhood. A place for families.

William Wooler is a family man, on the surface. But he’s been having an affair, an affair that ended horribly this afternoon at a motel up the road. So when he returns to his house, devastated and angry, to find his difficult nine-year-old daughter, Avery, unexpectedly home from school, William loses his temper. 

Hours later, Avery’s family declares her missing. 

Suddenly Stanhope doesn’t feel so safe. And William isn’t the only one on his street who’s hiding a lie. As witnesses come forward with information that may or may not be true, Avery's neighbors become increasingly unhinged. 

Who took Avery Wooler?

Nothing will prepare you for the truth.

It was really good! I would recommend it, however it just wasn't very memorable. I didn't feel super attached to any of the characters.

Wasn't too sure at the start. The story was good but nothing special. Then, as you go along, twists start to happen. Some are quite predictable, but it is still an enjoyable read.

The author did a fabulous job of telling the story in its entirety and the book was creative and well-written. However, I feel like this book could’ve been a four star for me if it was shorter. The book was way too long.

I loved the ending to this book. So satisfying. Quick read and page turner. I didn’t have a favorite character. But I did love to hate the characters. A lot of unnecessary plot lines in my opinion.
