Jeho zbraňou nie je pištoľ ani nôž, ale jej najtemnejšie tajomstvo. Nie každý, kto je nezvestný, by mal byť nájdený. Lebo ak ho nájdu, všetko je stratené. Dvadsaťdvaročná Olivia zmizla bez stopy. Naposledy ju zachytili pouličné kamery, ako vchádza do slepej uličky, odkiaľ sa už nevrátila. Detektívka Julia Dayová našla počas dvadsaťročnej praxe takmer každého nezvestného. Má bohaté skúsenosti so zúfalými rodinami zmiznutých, uvedomuje si neúprosne plynúci čas po ich zmiznutí a navyše ju práca oberá o chvíle s dcérou a manželom. Jej povolanie si vyberá svoju daň, no to ešte netuší, ako veľmi sa jej života dotkne najnovší prípad Olivie. Únosca má totiž niečo, s čím nepočítala. Nie je to zbraň, je to tajomstvo. Jej najtemnejšie tajomstvo. Bezpečnosť Juliinej rodiny závisí od jedinej veci: nesmie zistiť, čo sa stalo s Oliviou – a navyše musí z jej vraždy obviniť niekoho iného. Pokiaľ by Oliviu predsa len našla, prišla by o všetko. Tento brilantný triler s nečakanými zvratmi od autorky bestsellera V nesprávnom čase na nesprávnom mieste prináša hlbokú úvahu o rodine, materstve a rozhodnutiach na hranici medzi správnou a nesprávnou voľbou.
