Cross my heart and hope to dieJonah Baum, a professor of poetry at a local college in Vermont, sees his ordinary life come tumbling down when his wife and young daughter vanish from their home. No evidence of a kidnapping. No sign of murder. No proof that Rebecca didnt simply abandon her marriage. Just Sallys crude and chilling drawings, Jonahs little lies, and the sheriffs nagging fears that nothing is what it seems.For Sallys best friend, Lucinda, its something else. She trusts in Sally not to just disappear, not after theyve shared so many secrets-especially about the woods and what they saw there. But shell never tell. No one would believe her anyway.As the search for Rebecca and Sally intensifies, and as suspicion falls on Jonah, the disappearances become more relentlessly haunting than anyone can imagine. Because whats seen in the light of day is not nearly as terrifying as what remains hidden in the dark
