Summary

Missing. Lost. Dead?
 
People go missing every year. More than 600,000, in fact. Sometimes they are found. Sometimes, so much time goes by that people eventually give up. They must be dead. They’re gone. Vanished.
 
Where do they go?
 
Tess is one of those 600,000 people. Except she is not dead. Not lost. Tess has been taken.
 
Plucked from her taken-for-granted life and thrust into an impossible place, she must adapt to survive.
 
Is she trapped forever... or can she escape from The Contra?
Available since: 09/03/2022.

Meanwhile, Cece's neighbor, Richard Flora, is stirring up controversy with his newest article, an exposé of Regan Greene, power-hungry director of a valley district organization. Also in the mix is the town's big classic car show, paired with wine tastings . . .At the show, Cece spots Regan, who is displaying her restored green '72 Thunderbird convertible. As Cece pours tastes, she witnesses several heated discussions with Regan—including an argument with wine afficionado and new Colinas hardware store owner Greg Jardis. All goes smoothly—until Sunday brings shocking news. Regan has been murdered . . .Rumors fly that Richard may have orchestrated the homicide—or even committed it. But Cece knows that's absurd. And others in Cece's orbit seem to have discomfiting connections to Regan. 
Determined to clear Richard's name, and failing to extract any clues from detectives, Cece once again enlists her twin, Allie, as her partner-in-sleuthing. But they'll have to act quickly, before the trail goes sour . . .
