After ten years in hiding, Stephanie Albright—now living as “Elara Vance”—is dragged back to the suffocating town of Hollow Creek by an anonymous letter and a photo of her vanished sister. There she confronts Elias Thorne, a man whose family has controlled the town for generations. But as she digs into her mother’s diary and her sister’s hidden drawings, Stephanie uncovers a dark pact: every decade, a young life must be sacrificed to keep Hollow Creek prosperous. The most devastating truth? She is not Stephanie—she is Sarah, the sister she thought she’d lost. Her disappearance was a cover-up, her identity manufactured, and her parents complicit. Now fully remembering the nightmare, Sarah must escape Elias, expose the town’s secrets, and reclaim her name before she’s erased again. A chilling thriller about gaslighting, buried truth, and one woman’s fight to remember who she really is.
