The Bethany family had a seemingly perfect life.  Suddenly, one fateful day changes their lives forever.  In the blink of an eye, the Bethany children have vanished without a trace.  Fifteen-year-old Sunny and twelve-year-old Heather went to the mall together and were never seen or heard from again. 

Thirty years have passed.  One oil slick on a busy highway changes a woman's life forever.  She never planned to hit another vehicle.  She certainly did not plan to leave the scene of an accident.  What results is a stunning revelation that may or may not be true--she claims she is Heather Bethany. 

As the woman reveals more about her past life, Detective Kevin Infante delves into a case that has kept investigators baffled for three decades.  Those who were closest to Heather have died.  All that remains is a grieving mother's memories of the daughters she lost. 

WHAT THE DEAD KNOW is an absolutely gripping and unforgettable tale.  What could be a story ripped straight from the headlines makes for a fascinating mystery from the very first word.  I loved every sentence and stayed up late to read it in one sitting.  I always love a "one-sitting" book. 

The characters are so real and the plot grabs you instantly.  This is a mystery that you will not want to miss.
