But someone knows exactly where she is. Bronte Lowe ― single mother and the key witness to a local hit-and-run ― disappears in broad daylight. Probation officer Cate Austin is used to spotting lies.

Meanwhile, Adam’s girlfriend Freya has just moved into his remote cliffside home, hoping for a fresh start. But something isn’t right.
