Description
Harper Connelly's past comes back to haunt her in the final gripping supernatural mystery from bestselling author Charlaine Harris.
Taking a break from investigating, Harper and Tolliver head back to Texas, where they grew up—and her sister Cameron went missing eight years ago.
But when they arrive home, Tolliver's dad arrives on the scene seeking forgiveness, and the police get a tip-off that after all these years, Cameron's been spotted in a mall. Soon, family secrets ensnare them both and Harper finally discovers what happened to her missing sister so many years before.
And what she finds out will change her world forever...
Harris delivers a knuckle-gnawing tale... [that] will challenge the most jaded mystery buffs Publishers Weekly on Grave Sight
