The Friday 56|#61 Cemetery Girl.

Book: Cemetery Girl by David Bell.

Synopsis: Tom and Abby Stuart had everything: a perfect marriage, successful careers, and a beautiful twelve-year-old daughter, Caitlin. Then one day she vanished without a trace. For a while they grasped at every false hope and followed every empty lead, but the tragedy ended up changing their lives, overwhelming them with guilt and dread, and shattering their marriage.

Four years later, Caitlin is found alive—dirty and disheveled, yet preternaturally calm. She won’t discuss where she was or what happened. And when the police arrest a suspect connected to the disappearance, Caitlin refuses to testify, leaving the Stuarts with a choice: Let the man who may be responsible for destroying their lives walk away, or take matters into their own hands. And when Tom decides to try to uncover the truth for himself, he finds that nothing that has happened yet can prepare him for what he is about to discover.

The 56:

Tracy still didn’t move.
“Please, Tracy. You’re our only lead here.”
I couldn’t see her face. I couldn’t read what she was thinking or if my words were sinking in at all.
” I don’t like the police.” she said, her voice small and childlike.
“Liann’s right,” I said. “They have to be involved. They can help us.”
Tracy didn’t say anything else, but her head moved ever so slightly. A quick nod with her eyes squeezed shut. It looked like surrender.
“Thank You.” I said. “Thank You.”
