Vanishing Girls

New York Times bestselling author Lauren Oliver delivers a raw and heart-pounding story, perfect for fans of E. Lockhart's We Were Liars or Gillian Flynn's Sharp Objects.

Dara and Nick used to be inseparable, but that was before the accident that left Dara's beautiful face scarred and the two sisters totally estranged.

When Dara vanishes on her birthday, Nick thinks Dara is just playing around. But another girl, nine-year-old Madeline Snow, has vanished, too, and Nick becomes increasingly convinced that the two disappearances are linked.

Now, Nick has to find her sister, before it's too late.

In this edgy and compelling novel, Lauren Oliver creates a world of intrigue, loss, and suspicion as two sisters search to find themselves, and each other.

• A Powerful Story of Sisterhood: Dara was the beautiful, popular one. Nick was the quiet one. The accident changed everything, leaving them as strangers haunted by a past neither can remember clearly.
• Two Missing Girls: When Dara vanishes, Nick isn’t worried—at first. But when nine-year-old Madeline Snow disappears from the same stretch of road, she realizes the two cases must be connected.
• An Unreliable Narrator: Nick is sure she knows what happened the night of the crash. But with her memory fractured, she must face the terrifying possibility that she can’t even trust herself.
• A Small Town with Dark Secrets: In the sleepy town of Somerville, everyone has something to hide. As Nick digs deeper into her sister’s life, she uncovers a darkness that threatens to swallow them both.
