"When five-year-old Ava Sawyer goes missing from a birthday party at a local garden center, the police are bewildered by the lack of leads. That is, until two years later, when Ava's body is found and another little girl, Audrey Briggs, goes missing. Audrey also attended that party... Leading the investigation is Detective Natalie Ward. A mother of two teenagers, this case chills her to the bone and is a disturbing reminder of the last job she worked on. One that still keeps her awake at night... Natalie soon discovers that Ava's mother has some worrying gaps in her alibi, and as she digs deeper, she's sure Ava's father is not telling the full story. And what did the owner of the garden center Elsa see that day? Something that she's not telling Natalie... Just as Natalie is facing up to the grim possibility that Ava and Audrey were killed by someone close to home, another little girl from the party doesn't come home from her ballet lesson. Can Natalie find a way to stop this killer before more innocent lives are taken?"--Publisher description.
