When Jen’s mother, Darlene, vanished, the police didn't classify her as a “missing person.” Jen’s estranged father knew exactly where she was— but he was determined to keep Darlene and his own secrets well hidden. Only one other person—Jen—knew her father’s dark and destructive nature. Since she was a child, she’d experienced his cruelty firsthand when her father tried to break her down, but his ruthlessness had the opposite effect: she blossomed into the type of strong woman he hated. As an adult, Jen flourished when she left her parental home. But her need to protect her fragile mother from her father’s tyranny kept Jen returning to harm’s way. With no one willing to help, would Jen's dogged loyalty to her mother cost both women their mental health? Or would Jen finally submit to her father’s will and end her desperate search before discovering her mother’s true fate? www.jenromnes.com
