From the Publisher:
While parked at a gas station, Rhonda sees something so incongruously surreal that at first she hardly recognizes it as a crime in progress. She watches, unmoving, as someone dressed in a rabbit costume kidnaps a young girl. Devastated over having done nothing, Rhonda joins the investigation. But the closer she comes to identifying the abductor, the nearer she gets to the troubling truth about another missing child: her best friend, Lizzy, who vanished years before.||From the author of the acclaimed PROMISE NOT TO TELL comes a chilling and mesmerizing tale of shattered innocence, guilt, and ultimate redemption. |
Annotation:
Rhonda Farr witnesses a bizarre kidnapping outside a gas station, as six-year-old Ernestine Florucci drives away with a stranger wearing a bunny costume. The police are skeptical of Rhonda's account, and she begins to investigate on her own, haunted by memories of a childhood friend who also went missing, and whose father also used to wear a rabbit outfit. Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland serve as the surreal backdrop to this eerie tale of lost children and not-so-innocent childhoods.
