Bookseller-turned-amateur detective Delhi Laine is back with another atmospheric mystery—but this time, it's a family affair.
Nineteen years ago, Delhi Laine's two-year-old daughter disappeared. After a frantic but inconclusive search, authorities determined that she must have drowned, her body washed away from the picturesque English park in which she had been playing.
Delhi's heart has never healed, yet her family has since soldiered on. But when a mysterious letter arrives containing the ominous words
Your daughter did not drown
, their lives are once again thrown into turmoil. With her family torn between fighting for the past and protecting the future, Delhi is caught in the middle. For a mother, the choice to find her daughter seems easy. But for a family left fractured by the mistakes of the past, the consequences, and the reality, may be infinitely more costly.
Fans of Carolyn Hart will be swept away by this story of a family on the brink—and their hunt for the truth.
