A moving story from a USA Today bestselling author about family secrets, and the extraordinary courage it takes to face a buried past.
When Angie Fairlie returns to her coastal hometown after a devastating divorce, all she wants is a fresh start. But then, while clearing out her beloved grandmother's home, she stumbles upon a mysterious box. Inside, is an anonymously written book and newspaper clippings about a child who vanished decades ago.
As Angie digs deeper, she discovers that the heartbreaking novel, The Loneliest Girl by the Sea, may hold clues to the fate of the little girl who disappeared from a family picnic in 1952. But she never expects that revealing the tragic story will force her to confront the pain in her own past.
With the help of her enigmatic neighbour, Jack, a man with scars of his own, Angie unravels a shocking secret spanning generations. But will confronting the truth heal old wounds, or tear apart what's left of Angie's family…?
Poignant and heartfelt, The Lost Girl of Seahaven is an emotional story about how the echoes of childhood trauma reverberate through time, and the incredible resilience of the women who dare to overcome them.
