Fiction
Twenty-something drifter Miranda crashes her car late at
night on a lonely highway and is picked up by a passing
stranger who soon reveals himself to be more sinister than
at first glance. No one knows Miranda is missing: her father
died in a plane crash over Central America and her estranged
mother, Anne, sought comfort in a New Age lifestyle in the
Arizona desert. When Anne reaches out to her daughter, no
one has heard from Miranda for two months. All signs seem to
point to Miranda's death, but she's actually living under an
assumed name in a Virginia beach town and may not want to be
found. Maybe George, her highway rescuer, means nothing by
his unexpected appearances and is unconnected to rumors of a
serial killer stalking young women. Maybe her mother will
find her in time. Maybe not. An edgy and engrossing
page-turner, Last Seen Leaving explores the often ambiguous
nature of danger and the dark secrets we keep in order to
protect those we love.
