She Was Never Found
She Was Never Found
Fifteen years ago, Luke Barlow lied about the last time he saw Ellie Voss. Now he’s back in Marrin Creek for his father’s wake when a masked attacker strikes behind the hall and a terrified girl whispers the one thing Luke never thought anyone else knew. As old secrets claw their way back into the open, Luke is dragged into a town built on silence, missing evidence, and the kind of truth people kill to keep buried. Because Ellie Voss was never found. And somebody wants it to stay that way.
