Ruby Pierce vanished on her 16th birthday. No scream. No struggle. Just gone-swallowed by the night like she was never there.
Her younger sister Charlotte was the last to see her.
Two years later, Charlotte is still drowning in the silence Ruby left behind. The smiles at school. The murmured prayers at dinner. The way her parents never talk about what happened. In their pristine Denny-Blaine home, where nothing is ever out of place, something is deeply, grotesquely wrong.
Everyone says Ruby ran away.
Charlotte doesn't believe that.
Not anymore.
Because something is calling to her-from the woods, from the shadows, from her own fractured memories. And when Charlotte uncovers a piece of evidence that was never meant to resurface, everything begins to unravel: the truth about her family, the night Ruby vanished, and the rot beneath their perfect lives.
As reality fractures and the line between nightmare and memory blurs, Charlotte must decide how far she's willing to go for the truth.
Because finding Ruby might mean becoming her.
And some doors, once opened, don't ever close again.
