Synopsis

When a fourteen-year-old runs away, her parents turn to social media to find her—launching a public campaign that will expose their darkest secrets and change their family forever, in this suspenseful and gripping debut for fans of Reconstructing Amelia and Gone Girl.

Don’t try to find me. Though the message on the kitchen white board is written in Marley’s hand, her mother Rachel knows there has to be some other explanation. Marley would never run away.

As the days pass and it sinks in that the impossible has occurred, Rachel and her husband Paul are informed that the police have “limited resources.” If they want their fourteen-year-old daughter back, they will have to find her themselves. Desperation becomes determination when Paul turns to Facebook and Twitter, and launches FindMarley.com.

But Marley isn’t the only one with secrets.

With public exposure comes scrutiny, and when Rachel blows a television interview, the dirty speculation begins. Now, the blogosphere is convinced Rachel is hiding something. It’s not what they think; Rachel would never hurt Marley. Not intentionally, anyway. But when it’s discovered that she’s lied, even to the police, the devoted mother becomes a suspect in Marley’s disappearance.

Is Marley out there somewhere, watching it all happen, or is the truth something far worse?

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Don't try to find me.

Though the message on the kitchen whiteboard is in 14-year-old Marley's handwriting, her mother, Rachel, knows there must be some other explanation. Marley would never run away.

I'll be okay.

Marley's quiet. Innocent. Sheltered. Growing up in Northern California with all the privilege Rachel never had, what does Marley know about taking care of herself? About being okay?

I'll be better.

The police have limited resources to devote to runaways, so Rachel's husband, Paul, turns to Facebook and Twitter, and launches FindMarley.com. But Marley isn't the only one with something to hide. Paul's social media campaign generates na­tional attention that could expose Rachel's darkest secrets. And when she blows a TV interview, the dirty speculation begins.

I love you.

The blogosphere is convinced Rachel is hiding something. When it's discovered that she's lied, even to the police, the devoted mother becomes a prime suspect in Marley's disappearance. Is Marley out there, somewhere, watching it all happen . . . or is the truth something far worse?
