Dark secrets are everywhere in Jasperville?the kind Ky can’t walk away from.

When rookie FBI agent Cedric Dawson returns to town to finish an open investigation, he goes undercover at her high school as her ex. Determined to keep her from interfering, Dawson’s plan backfires after Ky gets an anonymous call about missing girls officially labeled as runaways?runaways that didn’t really run away at all.

"Ky's instinct to help those who are most vulnerable makes her a winner. A heart-pounding mystery."
