Synopsis

"I found her." One phone call and three whispered words is all it takes for Paige Fischer to risk everything - including her own life.

One missing sister...

Twelve years ago, Paige Fischer's identical twin, Jessica was kidnapped. Blaming herself, Paige never gave up hoping Jess is still alive, despite everyone else in her life insisting it's time to move on.

One devoted fiancé...

Jamie is the perfect partner, and father to their son, but when he asks Paige to set a date for their wedding, she tells him she can't, not until her sister is found. Every step forward Paige takes with her life feels like a betrayal to Jess and until Paige knows for sure what happened to her, she can't settle down.

One fateful lie...

There's been a sighting and all it takes is one phone call, one betrayal and one whispered threat for Paige to throw caution to the wind and do what nobody else could: rescue Jess. But what if Paige doesn't make it in time? Is Jess still alive? Or is someone playing a twisted game with Paige? Whatever outcome, the only thing Paige knows is that she's willing to risk it all, even her own life, if it means saving her sister.

Goodreads review by Kitter Bitters on February 12, 2024

Too Complex and Not Worth It This book was annoying. The author tries to weave three stories together and basically forces them to work. It doesn’t feel natural at all. I don’t know where the under the stairs comes in. There are some deep emotions to be felt but honestly it all felt like a waste of t......more

Steena Holmes has written a story about grief, loss and guilt. It was hard for me to read because of the subject matter, but it is well written and examines the subject of child abductions. Recommend.......more

Goodreads review by Vickie on October 25, 2020

This book gave me the chills! Absolutely, chills! The theme of human trafficking is hard to read about, so I cannot imagine living through it or surviving it. Paige Fischer has an identical twin sister who disappeared twelve years before. Now that she is working for CHILD, an organization dedicated......more
