  <abstract>"Once a star reporter, LEah Stevens has lost her job at a Boston paper and damaged her professional reputation beyond repair. When she unexpectedly crosses paths with her old roommate, Emma Grey, the two impulsively decide to relocate to a small town with the hope that they can leave their pasts behind. But soon after their arrival, a woman who looks just like Leah is left for dead and Emmy goes inexplicably missing. The police are unable to find any trace of Emmy--no acquaintances, no digital presence, and no paer trail. As Leah searches for answers in the house they share, she begins to realize how very little she knows about her closest friend. Is it possible Emmy Grey never existed at all? As Leah works to track down Emmy, she becomes more and more uncertain about the motives of the people around her. Whom can she trust--Kyle, the handsome young detective on the case; the concerned assistant principal; the teen students in her class who seem to know more than Leah herself? Soon her credibility is at stake, and Leah must confront her old demons, find some proof of Emmy, and figure out how she disappeared. But everyone in town has something to hide--including Leah. And how do you uncover the truth when you are busy hiding your own."--</abstract>
