A small town in Oklahoma is haunted by a mystery that has held its residents in its grip for years in this mystery from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Where the Heart Is.
In 1972, windswept DeClare, Oklahoma, was consumed by the murder of a young mother, Gaylene Harjo, and the disappearance of her baby, Nicky Jack. When the child's pajama bottoms were discovered on the banks of Willow Creek, everyone feared that he, too, had been killed, although his body was never found.
Nearly thirty years later, Nicky Jack mysteriously returns to DeClare, shocking the town and stirring up long-buried memories. But what he discovers about the night he vanished is more astonishing than he or anyone could have imagine.
Piece by piece, what emerges is a story of dashed hopes, desperate love, and a secret that still cries out for justice ... and redemption.
