Some people go missing by accident. Others choose to disappear. Attorney Wesley Payne has watched Private Investigator Yvette Young retreat from the world since losing her fiancé three years ago. When he brings her a missing person case that should be routine, he's hoping that working together might crack the armor she's built around herself. A missing construction worker. A desperate wife. What starts as a simple trace job becomes something far more dangerous when they realize nothing about the case is what it seems. Edward Foster vanished four years ago, leaving behind twin sons and a wife struggling to survive. Now his dying father's will hangs in the balance-millions of dollars that could change everything, if Edward can be found alive. From Atlanta's shadows to the Oregon coast, Yvette and Wesley uncover a conspiracy that reaches into the highest levels of power. As the case unravels, Yvette faces her greatest challenge yet. The danger closing in around them is nothing compared to the way Wesley makes her remember what it feels like to want something more than to merely exist.
