When Josie was kidnapped out of her home and never seen again, Lilas previously pristine public image twisted into that of an Unfit Mother. Driven mad by the hungry press, incompetent cops, and relentless true crimeobsessed fans, she disappeared into anonymity.Now, Lila Devlin returns to LA with a grand vision for a radical new skincare brand to reinvent herself and honor Josies legacy. Shes prepared to move into the next chapter of her life with forgiveness in her heart, when an encounter with a parasitic blogger ends with him dead.
