Synopsis

A woman searches for answers about a decades-old missing persons case in this chilling suspense thriller that is perfect for fans of Jennifer McMahon and Ruth Ware.

Thirty years ago, Sarah’s best friend Genevieve survived being struck by lightning. Already a self-proclaimed witch, she said the lightning gave her powers. A teenager’s sense of exaggeration, Sarah thought at the time. Now, returning to her coastal home town after decades away, she thinks about her friend more and more, especially the last night she was seen alive. Genevieve lived through the lightning strike but met her end when one night she slipped and fell off a cliff into an unforgiving sea. Or did she? After a terrifying vision of her dead best friend, Sarah feels Genevieve is reaching out to her for help and starts to question the narrative of events she has believed for so many years. Searching both her memory of that night on the cliff and uncovering new information that suggests Genevieve may have survived the fall, Sarah becomes determined to uncover the truth about what took place three decades ago. Because if her best friend didn’t die that night after all, what did happen to her?
