About the Book
The story follows Detective Ruth Lindsey, who is investigating the disappearance of a local girl named Lily Howard. In a town where everyone knows each other, Ruth hopes to discover what happened to Lily and bring the truth to light.
However, the case becomes more complicated when Mia Chaplin, a popular true-crime YouTuber known as Blackbird, arrives in town. Mia starts sharing videos about the disappearance, attracting public attention and creating pressure on the investigation.
At first, Mia appears to be helping find answers. But Ruth soon begins to question her motives. Mia knows details about Lily that she should not know, and her actions may be hiding something much darker.
As the investigation continues, Ruth must separate the facts from online rumours. The two women are searching for the same truth, but their reasons are very different. One wants justice, while the other may be more interested in fame.
