One dog eared page, otherwise perfect condition. This is a mystery set in a small seaside town, when a little girl is found abandoned. The mother is found, and the case is chalked up to be a toddler running off. But when a single man is found dead, and children’s toys in his apartment, questions arise. Detective Johanna Harper investigates and what she finds explores local legends, her own personal history, and the depths of what it is to be a mother.
