My book of the year so far Lee Child, #1 New York Times bestselling author In this chilling thriller from the bestselling authors of Spare Room, one woman just wants the truth about who she really is. But shes not the only one looking Its twenty years since Eva, a biracial woman, was adopted as an eight-year-old, and Cherry and Carlton Sugar McNeil have always been the only parents shes wanted or needed. But when shes dealt the double blow of Cherrys death and her own suspension from work, Eva decides its time to discover who she was before she was theirs. Against Sugars advice, Eva joins a DNA database, desperate for a match that will unlock her identity. And when a positive hit comes, shes excited to learn there are relations out there who might hold the key. But the closer Eva gets to uncovering her past, the more it appears someone is trying to stop her finally finding the truth As she continues to dig, Eva is drawn into a dark and merciless underside to society, where black women disappear without a word. Names erased from history, no search parties, no desperate pleas for their return. Once, someone tried to save Eva from all this. Someone wanted a better life for her. But now that shes torn down the facade of her life, has she come too far to be spared again?
