NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the author of We Begin at the End comes a soaring thriller and an epic love story that “hits like a sledgehammer . . . an absolutely must-read novel” (Gillian Flynn, author of Gone Girl).

“Kept me frantically turning the pages and somehow made me cry at the end . . . Brava!”—Kristin Hannah, author of The Women

“Melds tense suspense with a powerful exploration of devotion, obsession, and love.”—People (Best New Books)

1975 is a time of change in America. The Vietnam War is ending. Muhammad Ali is fighting Joe Frazier. And in the smalltown of Monta Clare, Missouri, girls are disappearing.

When the daughter of a wealthy family is targeted, the most unlikely hero emerges—Patch, a local boy, who saves the girl, and, in doing so, leaves heartache in his wake.

Patch and those who love him soon discover that the line between triumph and tragedy has never been finer. And that their search for answers will lead them to truths that could mean losing one another.

A missing person mystery, a serial killer thriller, a love story, a unique twist on each, Chris Whitaker has written a novel about what lurks in the shadows of obsession and the blinding light of hope.

    This book broke my heart a million times and you absolutely must read it. I will carry this story with me for the rest of my life. Unreal. The most beautiful writing I have ever read. Twist and turns, none that I ever saw coming. Tears? Too many to count. I can’t wait to read this again one day.

    I couldn’t tell you how many books I’ve read, but I’ve never felt the need to write a review. I can’t even find the words to explain this book. I’ll admit, I almost stopped reading when I first started it. It just didn’t do much for me in the beginning. But I am so glad I kept reading. I have read some amazing books over the years, but this one is in a category all its own. Amazing does not come close to describing it. I couldn’t wait for the next chapter to see what happens next, so I read for hours and hours. I wanted to know how it all ended, but I didn’t want it to end. It makes you feel things and think things that will challenge the way you might normally feel and think. Complete chills.

    This was a great story. The missing girls (a subject still not covered enough, especially indigenous women) murder, the investigations, the characters and all the heartbreak of life’s circumstances. The only drawback was it was a long read. Well worth sticking it out to the end!

  • Wow.

    Just wow. Read it. You won’t be sorry, and you won’t forget it for a long, long time.

    While some passages were wonderful, others were tortuous and not terribly enjoyable reading. The central plot was weak, but the characters and their lives were more interesting. I think the author is likely capable of better.

  • Gripping tale of murder, class, wars, and the transformative power of love.
