Cry Alone: Mystery Thriller

Last night I found a missing person poster for myself when I was 8 years old.
I've never been missing- or at least I don't think I have.
With my deceitful family, though, anything is possible.
As a 40-year-old woman, I've spent decades trying to build a life entirely separate from what I experienced back in Scarlet Falls.
But now, it seems I have no choice but to go back to the lunacy that I raced away from years ago.
Scarlet Falls holds on to its secrets tightly; those secrets often turn to forgotten dust in the ground.
Finding the truth seems like an insurmountable obstacle.
My mother's mind is fading.
My narcissistic sister is trying to manipulate me.
The tight-lipped sheriff won't talk.
The inscrutable hermit farmhand is far from helpful.
But I simply cannot live without knowing the truth.
I have no choice but to travel back to the most dreadful place that holds all my nightmares.
It's now or never.
