A novel of life lost and found.
In northeastern Minnesota, a young child, Annabelle, was forced to keep silent. Would she be able to forgive herself and find peace?
A chilling 911 call sent police to what looked to be a deserted farm, but it was not only the Winckowski's family home but a crime scene. Annabelle was missing, and her elusive father, Wayne, a fugitive. Continuing his week-long crime spree, Wayne avoided the police by resting in abandoned houses which littered the Midwest states. Without food or liquor, his thinking becomes more deranged, and leads to a bad decision.
The heart of the story surrounds Annabelle, who suffers from night terrors of fear and guilt, but she needs to trust her doctor with the silent secrets and believe a loving life is deserved.
The heartbreaking and terrifying week follows the lives of those lost and found.
