Publisher's Summary

INEZ IS MISSING, BUT MISSING THINGS CAN ALWAYS BE FOUND.

Mae knows this as fact, even though the police investigation has come to a standstill, even though her parents are moving on. But when she goes to clear out her older sister’s studio, Mae finds a mess of research and an old white canvas set in an ornate gold frame. The closer Mae gets to the canvas, the more difficult it becomes to pull her eyes away from its mottled surface. Its heavy layer of white paint. The peeling top corner she’s tempted to pull to see what’s beneath. But she doesn’t. Not yet.

Mae is certain that Inez’s disappearance is connected to the painting. With the help of a strange, beautiful boy who says he’s Inez’s neighbor, she decides to retrace her sister’s steps. So begins a scavenger hunt for what Inez left behind.

One that leads to centuries-old questions best left unasked and secrets best kept in the shadows.

From the author of A Guide to the Dark comes another romantic and eerie mystery about the lengths we are willing to go for the truth and the ones we love.

“Metoui weaves in so many twists and turns, mystery fans will be frantically turning the page to see what comes next.”—Sara Farizan, author of Dead Flip
