Living off the grid in Hawaii to escape a dangerous past, Kati Dawes faces exposure when her fiancâe disappears on a hike, her daughter vanishes and her long-buried secrets unravel in ways she never anticipated.
A mother and daughter in hiding are threatened by more than secrets and lies in a twisting novel of paranoia, revenge, and psychological suspense by bestselling author Douglas Corleone.
For two years, Kati Dawes and her teenage daughter, Zoe, have lived off the grid in Hawaii, hiding from a past Kati must forget as if her life depends on it. New names. Anonymous online presence. So far, safe. Until Kati’s fiancé, attorney Eddie Akana, disappears along a popular hiking trail in a Maui national park. Now all eyes are on Kati. Exposure can make a woman with so many secrets very paranoid.
Eddie’s law partner, Noah Walker, is doing everything he can to protect his new client from the press that’s hovering like a vulture and the authorities whose suspicions about Kati—and the disappearance—are rising. Then suddenly, Zoe goes missing as well. Kati will risk anything to find her. But the worst is still to come. Because Kati’s not the only one with secrets. And buried among them is a twist she never saw coming.

“[A] psychological thriller that’s very much in the vein of Gillian Flynn or Lisa Jewell…Fans of the genre should be urged to pick this one up, and fans of the author can safely be told that this book is just as good as his previous ones.” —Booklist
“A twisty, fast-paced thriller from a gifted storyteller. Corleone masterfully combines great characters, a setting in Hawaii that is lush and forbidding, and a tense, dark plot.” —William Landay, New York Times bestselling author of Defending Jacob
