A town where nothing ever happens-until the unthinkable does.
Maplewood is the kind of quiet, affluent suburb where life is predictable. Neighbors smile, lawns are immaculate, and no one asks too many questions. But when the Clayton family vanishes without a trace, the town's perfect illusion begins to crack.
For former FBI agent Elliot Quinn, the case is hauntingly familiar. Ten years ago, his own wife and daughter disappeared in the same eerie fashion, leaving behind only a cryptic note: "You were chosen." Now, as he's pulled back into an investigation he thought was behind him, the past and present collide in a deadly game of cat and mouse.
With time running out, Elliot and his estranged daughter, Sarah, must follow a trail of chilling clues before the disappearances start again. But the closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous the game becomes. Someone is watching. Someone is waiting. And in Maplewood, no one is safe.
A gripping psychological thriller packed with twists, suspense, and a mystery that will keep you turning pages late into the night. Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn, Harlan Coben, and Lisa Jewell.
