The bones are soon identified as those of Amelia Graham, a bright and beloved eighteen-year-old who vanished without a trace twelve years ago.

But just when he’s on the verge of a breakthrough, one of Amelia’s closest friends comes forward claiming to know the truth about what really happened that night.
But before she can reveal the truth, she’s found murdered, silenced by someone who clearly has something to lose.
