never lets you go! The story starts out with Maddie waking
up in a car
trunk, injured and not being able to remember what
happened or even who
she is. She manages to escape and we pick the story up

know or remember why, but she gets terrible headaches
whenever she
tries to remember.

never given up on finding her, and when he sees her image

under another
name in Seattle, but Colin just knows that he has found
the missing Maddie
Dubeau and he sets out to convince her to come back to the

Angel Butte, Oregon. Easier said than done as he soon
finds out. Nell and
Colin talk on the phone and over time, she decides to
trust him and meet
him back in Angel Butte. She wants to know what happened
to her in the
