A California crime blogger left her radio job to find missing people. Now she’s searching for her best friend in this “harrowing [and] intense” mystery (Publishers Weekly).
Farley Black, Kit’s friend and former radio co-host, is missing. He was supposed to be surfing with his girlfriend but never arrived at his Malibu Beach destination. As the last person to hear from him, Kit is determined to find out what’s happened.
Kit searches Farley’s home and what she finds there threatens her ideas about friendship, loyalty, and love. A surprising discovery makes it clear that Farley has been lying to her—and to everyone else.
Kit heads north in search of the truth. Fortunately, she’s joined in this search by her street-smart friend, Virgie, whose breaking-and-entering skills come in handy as the duo follow the signal from Farley’s phone toward a rural area on the Redwood Highway close to Mendocino. But a series of menacing incidents convinces Kit that she’s being watched. Someone is tracking her every move. As her unknown pursuer grows bolder and more reckless, Kit realizes she isn’t just looking for her friend—but running from a killer.
