Miley’s plans take a terrifying detour when she’s abducted during a morning run. Held captive in a desolate off\-grid cabin, she’ll have to use her athletic prowess, cunning mind, and courage to survive. But as the nightmare at the cabin escalates, Miley is forced to form an unlikely alliance and attempt a risky escape. Can she outwit her captors and survive the wilderness before it’s too late? Inspired by true events, Gray After Dark is a pulse\-pounding psychological thriller with a finale that will leave you breathless.

Ten children, abducted in broad daylight—and buried alive. Sage and her sister won’t make it home from school today. Neither will the other children on Bus 315. But that’s only the beginning of the nightmare. New bus driver Jessa blames herself for what happened. She couldn’t protect the kids she was supposed to deliver to daycare, just like she couldn’t protect her own daughter three years ago. But this time, everything will be different. It has to be. Trapped in a shipping container buried twenty feet underground, Jessa and the children do their best to stay calm. The kidnappers insist that if everyone behaves, they’ll be freed when the ransom is paid. But Sage isn’t sure they’ll last that long. Neither is Jessa. It’s dark and cramped, and with every passing minute it’s getting harder to breathe. With time—and air—running thin, Jessa and the children must find a way to outsmart their captors, or face an unthinkable fate. Such Quiet Girls was inspired by actual events.

A missing girl. A frantic mother. A desperate search. Across the country, notes taped to restroom stalls read, “On a date that isn’t going well? Ask for Andrea at the bar. We’ll make sure you get home safe.” But Andrea—the girl behind the campaign—didn’t make it home safe. She disappeared without a trace at seventeen. The police labeled her a runaway, and the case went cold. That is, until her mother, Sabina, starts digging for answers. But the closer she gets to the truth, the clearer it becomes that not everyone wants Andrea to be found. A predator is hiding in plain sight, keeping close tabs on the search. And he’ll do whatever it takes to make sure his secrets stay buried. Forget You Saw Her is the chilling standalone prequel to the international bestseller Ask for Andrea.
