A sharp read for lovers of true crime and Bright Young Women by Jessica Knoll.Twenty-two year old Alice has never known a normal life.

Often gone for weeks at a time, Alice?s father leaves her in the care of her often fierce and unkind mother. But when Alice?s father is diagnosed with terminal cancer, he remains permanently at home. Waking day and night at his deathbed, Alice listens to her father?s feverish drug-induced ramblings until, in his final days, he confesses to having murdered several women. Shocked and disbelieving, Alice confides in Hallie. Together, they vow to find the truth and journey her father''s old travel routes connected to various missing women, before discovering the real reason behind why she lost her ability to speak. And how she is connected to her father''s crimes.
