Chloe Cates Is Missing is a gripping tale of disappearance and family secrets. Chloe Cates, the 13-year-old star of the hit web series, "CC and Me," has vanished without a trace. Her whereabouts remain a mystery, even to her ruthless momager Jennifer Scarborough, who has meticulously crafted Chloe's child celebrity persona. As Chloe's sudden absence threatens to dismantle their faux-fairytale world, secrets surface that could reduce the Scarborough family to rubble.

Anxious to find her daughter and protect the life she's built, Jennifer turns to social media for help. However, the resulting hearsay, false claims, and salacious suspicions only exacerbate the situation. The search quickly becomes as sensational as Chloe's web series. Enter Missing Persons detective Emilina Stone, who discovers a personal connection to the case. Can she remain objective and sift through the rumours to uncover the truth before it’s too late?

Narrated from multiple perspectives, including Jennifer, Emilina, and pages from Chloe's lost diary, Chloe Cates Is Missing is a suspenseful novel of a child pushed to her limits, set against the backdrop of a troubled family desperate for her return.
