Publisher's Synopsis
When Nathan Milton wakes up to find his wife Cassie missing, he thinks nothing of it-until his hand grazes the pile of dirt on her side of the bed. When the police arrive, they only notice what isn't there; all of Cassie's clothes, toiletries, the money from their safe, and her car. That's enough for the world to write it off as a runaway, but Nathan knows something isn't right-his wife would never abandon their twins. Not in a million years. Weeks later, after the police officially end their search, Nathan receives a clue that may be the key to unraveling the mystery. With his twin girls in tow, Nathan's desperate search takes him to the hometown his wife never spoke of-a place buried away within the woods of old New England. But this town has roots that grow far deeper and darker than he could have ever imagined. Soon, Nathan finds himself embroiled in a maze of trees, deceptions, and bargains made in blood.
