While parked at a gas station, Rhonda sees something so incongruously surreal that at first she hardly recognizes it as a crime in progress. She watches, unmoving, as someone dressed in a rabbit costume kidnaps a young girl. Devastated over having done nothing, Rhonda joins the investigation. But the closer she comes to identifying the abductor, the nearer she gets to the troubling truth about another missing child: her best friend, Lizzy, who vanished years before.From the author of the acclaimed Promise Not to Tell comes a chilling and mesmerizing tale of shattered innocence, guilt, and ultimate redemption.

A good quick read. I enjoyed the mystery of it, keeping me guessing until the end.

Disturbing but interesting. The pacing of both of the stories was good, though I found one more intriguing than the other. I admit it was predictable, at least in Lizzy's case, while Ernie's had twists but were strange and didn't really add up. Nonetheless, I was engrossed.

I really dislike murder mysteries. This one did not feel like one. Plus, I'm always a sucker for an Alice in Wonderland-type theme. This one had Peter Pan elements too. Still, I had to push myself to finish it.
