Angie Chapman is only 13 when she gets lost in the woods in the middle of the night. The next thing she knows she's returned home, scars around her wrists and ankles, physically exhausted. Her parents collapse into tears when they see her, but Angie doesn't understand - until they tell her she has been missing, presumed dead, for three years. Angie doesn't remember anything from her missing years. But there are people who do - people who could tell Angie every terrifying detail, if only they weren't locked inside her mind. With help, Angie begins to unravel the darkest secrets of her own past. But does she really want to know the truth?
