During their first year of high school, Cain was a steady presence in Diane's life-quiet, dependable, and always around. Then, without warning, he disappeared at the start of sophomore year, leaving Diane confused and full of questions. Years later, they cross paths again at university. Diane is finishing her degree in Broadcast Journalism, and Cain, now a senior transfer student, is unexpectedly assigned as her thesis partner. Their topic: a documentary about a local cold case-the disappearance of Lola Bianca's two grandchildren, a mystery that has lingered in their town for nearly a decade. As they begin their research, the project starts to feel like more than just schoolwork. Clues about the missing children stir up old memories for Cain and bring Diane closer to the truth about his sudden disappearance years ago. What started as a documentary turns into a deeper investigation into secrets long buried. As they uncover more, they realize the story is bigger-and more dangerous-than they expected. Together, they must face difficult truths from the past and decide how far they're willing to go for answers.
