Evidence of Life

A woman uncovers shocking revelations about her family in Barbara Taylor Sissel’s unnerving thriller Evidence of Life.

A mother’s love. A wife’s obsession. And the invisible fractures that can shatter a family.

As her husband Nick and daughter Lindsey embark on a weekend camping trip to the Texas Hill Country, Abby looks forward to having some time to herself. She kisses them goodbye, and thinks to herself that she has it all—a perfect marriage, a perfect life. Until a devastating storm rips through the region, and her family vanishes without a trace.

Though Nick and Lindsey are presumed dead, Abby refuses to give up hope. Consumed by grief and convinced her family is still alive, she sets out to find them. But as disturbing clues surface, Abby realizes that the truth may be more sinister than she imagined. Soon she finds herself caught in a current of lies that challenges everything she once believed about her marriage and family.
