Going back to what went missing

In June 2016, Megan Miranda released her sixth book. Megan Miranda’s novel, "All the Missing Girls," is a nail-biting, breathtaking story about two similar missing person cases involving two different young women. This book just recently arrived at Burton with Ms. Poteet's November shipment of best sellers. 

In this novel, Nicolette Farrel receives an emergency phone call early in the morning from her brother, Daniel. He tells her that her father's mental health is failing, and that they are about to lose their family home. She is forced to return to her hometown, Cooley Ridge,  as she fears her father is not going to recover. She becomes extremely anxious about  returning home because of past events which haunt her; she has not been back to Cooley Ridge in nearly ten years. 


The environment of Cooley Ridge brings back all the memories her of her best friend, Corinne Prescott, who disappeared without a trace. Within days of her return to Cooley Ridge, Nic’s younger neighbor  Annaleise, goes missing.  To avenge the disappearance of her best friend Corinne and her neighbor,  Nic begins gathering information to discern what is happening to women who are closest to her.  What will she discover?  Are these disappearances tied to her or are they just a coincidence? Is the criminal a total stranger or someone very close?  Find out by reading "All the Missing Girls" written by Megan Miranda.
