Synopsis: A tiny Ozark town is haunted by a long-ago crime in this &“dynamic, captivating&” mystery by the author of Bred to the Bone (Mid-Atlantic Book Review). While visiting her mother in the rural Missouri town of Sycamore Bend, Catherine Hudson and her boyfriend go on a scenic hike—though it gets hard to see much of anything when a dense fog descends upon their trail. Then, in the rapidly fading sunlight, a young, barefoot boy appears, searching for his dog. But before they can even learn his identity, he disappears back into the mist. Catherine&’s mother, Caroline, has become increasingly interested in the lives of those around her, even though some would prefer some stories stay in the past. But the retired librarian can&’t help herself. Soon, details of a boy&’s death eighty years ago begin to unfold—and a much more recent tragedy involving abuse, addiction, and neglect. Caroline won&’t rest—and neither will a young victim&’s spirit—until justice is done . . .
