Melanie Gray has spent most of her life hiding: from her past, her mistakes, her failures, her regrets.
Now she must return to the small mountain town she once called home, to sift through the remnants of a life she left behind long ago.
But when Melanie arrives in Cedar Ridge, she finds something amiss: the town is completely deserted. Everything seems frozen in a still-frame--lights still on, water running, radios blasting music...
But where are all the people?
Why won't it stop raining?
And why does Melanie's every attempt at escape lead her right back to the door of a house she abandoned a decade ago?
Melanie Gray's past has come back to haunt her, and now she must admit her darkest secrets and face her deepest fears if she ever hopes to escape.
