"If Lark and Mikki didn't have each other, they'd have nothing in this miserable town. So the best friends stick together, working night shift at the highway travel stop, going nowhere fast.

Eight years later, Lark is finally getting her life back together for the sake of her young daughter and Mikki's lovably prickly grandma, who can no longer care for herself. People have almost stopped blaming Lark for Mikki's disappearance, and she's engaged to the nicest guy on highway patrol. But when the stranger who drove off with Mikki reappears looking for her, nobody knows what to believe. As the search reignites, Lark fights to find out whether Mikki is really missing or doesn't want to be found. But piecing together the chain of events set into motion that fateful night could threaten everything--and everyone--Lark has left."--
