Steepleton could have dealt with a runaway, a suicide, an abduction, or even a murder. Other towns survive them. But the thing about Chris Creed''s
disapearance is that he was just plain gone.
Chris Creed grew up as the class freak-the bullies'' punching bag. After he vanished, the weirdness that had once surrounded him began spreading. It was as if a darkness reached out of his void to grab at the most normal, happy people-like some twisted joke or demented form of justice. It tore the town appart.
For sixteen-year-old Torey Adams, Creed''s disapearance becomes a major turning point in his privileged and sheltered life. The only apparent clue-a cryptic e-mail message written twenty-four hours before Chris turned up missing-draws Torey into the mystery and sets him on a path filled with terro and pain. In his search for the truth, Torey slowly discovers that some mysteries are not meant to be solved-they are simply meant to overcome.
