Now her mother, Laurel Mack is trying to rebuild her it’s been ten years since her daughter disappeared, seven years after her marriage ended and only a few months since the last clue in Ellie’s case was uncovered. So when she meets a handsome man in a bar, no one is more surprised than Laurel to see how their flirtation turns into something deeper. Before he knows it, he meets Floud’s daughters and his youngest, Poppy, takes Laure;’s breath away.
