Summary

Paula stared out of the window; her gaze fixed on nothing in particular. The sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm, orange glow over the quiet neighbourhood. Five years had passed since the day her world had shattered into a million pieces, and yet the ache in her heart was as raw as ever.
James had been just a little boy of eight, his laughter filling the air like a melody. He was her golden-haired boy, full of life and boundless energy.

    As Stella and Lyndy tour Yorkshire and mingle with royals as husband and wife, they face a sinister mystery that puts their vows to the test.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. 
    Twenty years ago, three children vanished into the forests of the Pacific Northwest. 
     
    No bodies were found. No ransom was demanded. No explanation ever surfaced. 
     
    The case was eventually abandoned, leaving behind grieving families and a community determined to forget. 
     
    Now, decades later, a forestry crew discovers a child's shoe beneath the roots of an ancient tree—and a recording hidden nearby containing a voice that should be impossible to hear. 
     
    Cold-case investigator Mara Ellison returns to the investigation, convinced that someone knows what happened all those years ago. Her search leads her deep into forgotten logging roads, abandoned cabins, sealed police files, and a history of disappearances stretching back generations. 
     
    But the deeper Mara enters the forest, the stranger the evidence becomes. 
     
    Locals insist the woods remember every person who enters them. 
     
    Then Mara begins hearing a voice beneath the trees calling her by name. 
     
    To solve the old case, she may have to uncover a secret the forest has been protecting—and decide whether some mysteries were buried for a reason.
