About the book
A New York Times bestselling author returns with the latest installment in the addictive Frankie Elkin series, in which Frankie is called to Tucson, Arizona, to find a missing Afghan refugee, whose friend suspects she is in grave danger—before it is too late.
Recently, Sabera Ahmadi, a young mother and Afghan refugee, was last seen leaving her workplace three weeks ago. The local authorities have not yet initiated an investigation, while her controlling husband seems indifferent. Upon the urging of Sabera's best friend, missing persons specialist Frankie Elkin agrees to take on the search only to discover a video of Sabera emerging, walking away from the site of a gruesome double homicide.
Upon delving deeper, Frankie uncovers hidden layers within the Ahmadi family. Sabera is a talented linguist, her husband Isaad is a brilliant mathematician, and their daughter Zahra possesses an extraordinary memory. However, considering the tragedies Zahra has witnessed, this skill may be more of a curse.
As Isaad vanishes under peculiar circumstances and an attempt is made on Zahra's life, Frankie realizes she must unravel the secrets of this family's dark history. Someone is targeting the Ahmadis, and violence is evidently an option.
When faced with a life-or-death situation, how far would you go to safeguard your loved ones? Frankie is about to confront this dilemma head-on.
