Something dark and strange has come to Greenwald. On the biggest night of his young life, Gabriel Brennan is all set to propose to his girlfriend, Adelaide "Alice" Stewart. As they dine, though, something is off, something he can't quite put his finger on. Then, as his girlfriend visits the restroom, another Adelaide, the real one, shows up, without any knowledge of having just been seated across from him. Gabriel grows cold. Who is that, then, in the restroom? Elsewhere, a bright student and promising writer named Alice Gordon begins sensing a sinister presence in her life. As her friend Leighton and her twin brother Adrian struggle to help her, a series of murders breaks out, all involving those in Alice's --- and Gabriel's --- social orbit.

Jas gives me a sympathetic look. She sighs heavily, long nails tapping against the wooden table, dodging the 'Missing' posters scattered all over the surface. "Maybe," she finally says, "Just maybe, he doesn't want to be found, Ava." I clench my jaw. "No. I refuse to believe that. He's not like that." "What do you know?" Jas snorts, finally withdrawing her hand from the table and turning back to look at me. "You don't even know him." xx Ford Wilson was in three out of four of Ava Jackson's classes. They had one mutual friend, did a project together once in sophomore year, and had the same lunch. When Ava's car had broke down, she had even ended up parked outside of Ford's house, asking for gas. In Ava's life, he was everywhere. And yet, she didn't notice him until he was nowhere to be found.
