Description

Their lives have become a series of terrible choices. Bad people and dark places. And then a phone call offers them the chance to start over. To take a pill and to vanish from life . . .

Hundreds of eyes stare out from the missing persons board - people who have been gone too long and are being forgotten, by everyone except Mila Vasquez. Fiery, loyal and with a tragic history of her own, Mila will never stop looking for them. But what if some of these people wanted to disappear, to hide in the shadows

This is the question Mila and her team must ask themselves as long-lost people begin to return, wreaking devastation in their wake. Clues are being left for Mila, clues she doesn't fully understand and about which her colleagues, terrified of an old case re-emerging, are strangely dismissive.
