Micah Greeneway is invisible. Not the teen angst kind but actually invisible. It's hereditary, a family secret locked up like Area 51, but that's not really how he rolls. Even with his mother's disapproval, Micah continues the vigilante life style. After all, it's not that dangerous, right? Because no one can see him coming, literally. Except being a vigilante isn't as glamorous as Hollywood makes it out to be. Suddenly, Micah not only finds himself being noticed by the soccer boy next door but also some unsavory characters that want to abuse this so-called gift to commit a heinous crime. Now he has to juggle keeping his friends and loved ones safe while also maintaining his own personal morals. It's time for Invisible Boy to step up and be a real hero or watch all his hard work disappear just as quick as he can.

When Isabelle Donovan disappears without a trace, her case eerily resembles another woman's unexplained vanishing just a year before---raising chilling questions about what truly links these two mysteries. Isabelle Donovan doesn't show up to work, which causes immediate concern. Known for her impeccable attendance, Isabelle would never miss a day without notice. The police launch a swift investigation, with initial suspicion falling on her estranged husband, Scott Donovan, from whom she separated six months earlier. Scott claims ignorance regarding Isabelle's disappearance, but his alibi begins to unravel when her best friend comes forward with unsettling new information. A year earlier, another young woman vanished under eerily similar circumstances. Though her body was never recovered, police remained convinced her husband was responsible---despite lacking proof. As the search for Isabelle intensifies, troubling questions emerge. What truly led to the end of Isabelle's marriage? Is Scott harboring secrets, or is he a scapegoat for a deeper mystery? And could Isabelle's case be linked to the earlier disappearance? If so, does that clear Scott-or deepen his guilt? In this story, innocence is elusive and every character harbors secrets. Because here, nobody is innocent.
