A Chicago crime reporter's idyllic home life comes undone when his child disappears in this thriller by the USA Today–bestselling author of Six Seconds.

As a reporter for a big Chicago newspaper, Cal Hudson has journeyed into society's darkest corners and expose the vilest crimes. But the world he and his wife share with their nine-year-old son is much nicer. They have made sure of it, creating a tranquil haven in suburban River Ridge to protect the person most precious to them. Until the unthinkable happens.


When their son disappears at a local carnival, the Hudsons' storybook world is shattered. A frantic search begins to uncover splinters in their carefully crafted facade, revealing secrets that cast just as much suspicion on Cal and his wife as any ill-meaning stranger. It soon becomes clear that the line between love and violence can disappear as suddenly as a child on a chaotic midway.
