Twenty-five years ago, Justin's 4 year old body was in the woods of a park in Dove point, Ohio. They thought they knew who the killer was and he spent 22 years in prison for it. Janet and her friend Micheal were in the park because her mom sent her and Justin to play.
Janet now has a daughter Ashleigh, 15 and her and her friend Kevin hang out together. They moved back into her grandfather's house because he lost his job. Janet never wanted to but, she had no choice.
One late night, there's a knock on the door and when she answers it, It's a guy with short cropped hair and says he knows about what happened to Justin so many years ago. Then, he leaves. Janet starts to wonder if he is Justin.
Detective Stynes shows up at the Manning house to Speak to Janet and her father about an interview concerning the twenty-five year anniversary of the murder, but her dad wants nothing to do with it. The young reporter mentions something about Dante being innocent. Janet just doesn't know what to say. In a way it is interesting that she would mention something like that. Stynes really wasn't quite sure himself about Dante. His next stop would be to go speak to Dante.
Janet runs into Micheal and he asks her a really weird question, ' do you remember what happen that day.' Janet just tells him that she remembers enough. That's when that comment keeps going around in her head. Micheal has never liked his father for some reason and Janet has never figured it out.
There's some interesting truths that come out in this book. It doesn't move real fast, but it does move and makes you want to know what is going to happen next. You start to want to know if Dante really killed that little boy. What Micheal remembers, what the heck that guy wants with her. The answers do come towards the end. You'll have to pick up the book to find out what happens.
