A girl goes missing in a Rhode Island beach community, leaving everyone to wonder: Is there a monster among us? From the critically acclaimed author of Her One Regret.

July 1979: The people of Bonnet Shores are shaken to their core when local twelve-year-old Christina Grove doesn't come home one night. Christina's older sister, Maddie, takes the disappearance especially hard and blames herself for sending her little sister alone through the woods on her bike.

Everyone shows up to help find the missing girl: from Bonnet Beach Club royalty to working-class neighbors who pick up donuts and coffee for the search parties. Maddie has suspicions of her own that lead her to take ever more dangerous risks despite her mother's fears of losing a second daughter. Meanwhile, another local, Cricket Kelly, decides to investigate the unsavory characters of Bonnet in an attempt to both find Christina and come to terms with her own teenage trauma. The Groves' neighbor, twenty-one-year-old criminal justice student Diana González, is just getting her start working part-time at the Narragansett Police Department and jumps in to help with Christina's case. Diana knows there's more to Bonnet than carefree nights of flashlight tag and bonfires up in the dunes, and she suspects an ugly reality: Someone who pitched in to help with the search for Christina is likely responsible for her disappearance.

A riveting story about lost childhood, female friendship, trauma, and redemption, the second Ocean State Novel takes a hard look at violence against women and girls in a beach town where the wolves are always circling.
