Book ID/图书代码： 06830015B78266
English Summary/英文概要： Dana Nolan was a promising young TV reporter until she was kidnapped by a notorious serial killer. A year has passed since she survived the ordeal, but Dana is still physically, emotionally, and psychologically scarred, racked with bouts of post-traumatic stress disorder and memory loss. In an attempt to put herself back together after surviving the unthinkable, Dana returns to her hometown. But it doesn’t provide the comfort she expects: she struggles to recognise family and childhood friends and begins experiencing dark flashbacks. But she’s not sure if they’re truly memories or side effects of her brain injury.
Dana decides to use her investigative skills to piece together her past and learns of the event that made her become a reporter in the first place: the disappearance of her best friend, Casey Grant, the summer after high school graduation. Looking at her past and the unsolved mystery through the dark filter of her shattered psyche, old friends seem to be suspects, authority figures part of a cover-up. Dana begins to question everything she knows. What is real? What is imagined? Are we defined by what happens to us? And is the truth really something too terrible to be believed?
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 她應該已經死了才對，她應該是連環殺手的第九個祭品，她體內的生命之火已是餘燼，但在奮力一搏之前，她不准許這絲火光化為煙灰。
她想要活下去。
黛娜・諾蘭是個年輕且前途無量的電視台記者，但這一切在一個連環殺手打算將她加入受害者名單時就徹底改變了。雖然黛娜僥倖逃脫，但她身心靈所受的傷卻深到難以癒合。事件發生後將近一年，她依然飽受創傷後壓力症候群、可怕的回憶與惡夢折磨。黛娜回到家鄉，試圖重回正軌，展開新的人生，然而家並沒有帶來她所期望的安寧與撫慰。
黛娜的可怕遭遇和她返回小鎮的消息重新燃起了警方與媒體對某件懸案的興趣。該懸案關係人是黛娜的摯友凱西・格蘭特，她在高中畢業那年夏天人間蒸發，至今杳無音訊。黛娜雖然對深埋已久的真相感到害怕，但仍鼓起勇氣，勉強回顧自己的過去。在創傷後壓力症候群的陰鬱濾鏡下，至親與老友都變成可能的敵人和嫌犯；黛娜質疑她所知的一切，拒絕用過去的創傷來定義自己，並在這段尋找自我的過程中一步步挖掘令人難以置信、驚悚至極的事實真相⋯⋯
