Cassie McDowell is twelve years on and lives with her parents and sister in rural Minnesota. It's the 1980s and boys in her town are going missing. They are being abducted and sexually abused. No one really pays attention or cares until a boy goes missing from the rich part of town. When her close male friend goes missing she decides to play, Nancy Drew and figure out who is haring her classmates.
Cassie's homelife isn't ideal. Her parents hold parties, that are not appropriate for minors. Unspeakable acts go on in their home and Cassie and her sister are not allowed to discuss it. She can't sleep at night and lives in constant fear of her dad coming into her bedroom. Her dad is unpredictable and has secrets.
The writing is dark and can be triggering for some. The reading can be a bit slow and the ending left me wanting more.
