A missing kid. Two desperate parents.
 
And a story that just doesn't add up.
 
Joe Tyler knows all about finding missing kids, so when Desmond Locker's parents ask for help locating their son, he agrees to take the case. Having quit his teaching job and returned to investigating, he's not in a position to turn down a job.
 
But Joe quickly learns that the story behind Desmond's disappearance is more complicated than it seems.
 
And far more sinister.
 
As secrets and lies rise to the surface, Joe realizes everyone involved in Desmond's life—his parents, his friends, his pregnant girlfriend—has a different story to tell.
 
But only one of them knows the truth.
