Mystery | Suspense
At age eleven, Nora and Charlotte are the best of
friends—until their teenager babysitter, Rose, disappears
under mysterious circumstances. They decide to
“investigate,” using paranormal theories and techniques they
glean from a hand-me-down collection of Time-Life books. But
their search goes nowhere, and leaves both girls distraught
and angry with each other. In her late twenties, Nora is drawn back her old
neighborhood, and to Charlotte, when Rose’s bones are found.
She was probably murdered, and Charlotte is adamant that
they solve the crime. Nora—who was the last known person to
see Rose alive—is forced to reconsider her memory of the
events surrounding the disappearance, and her own troubled
adolescence following those fateful days. And she’s not sure
if she’s ready to face the secrets that begin to surface. Told in alternating narratives from the past and present,
this is a mystery about broken friendship and the unease of
revisiting adolescent memory.
