A MISSING GIRL.
 A week later, seventeen-year-old Minna Larson disappeared. No one has seen or heard from her since.

A SMALL TOWN.
 The cases were never linked, and neither was solved. For some, it was a scar that never healed. Others simply forgot.

A DARK PAST.
Now, over forty years later, Minna's niece Maggie learns that days before vanishing, Minna was telling people she knew who had murdered Sister Fran, and that she had the evidence to prove it.

Except no one believed her because there was one thing everyone could agree on . . .
