Since Sandy Shortt's childhood classmate disappeared twenty years ago, Sandy has been obsessed with missing things. Finding what is lost becomes her single-minded goal and her life's work becomes finding people who have vanished from their loved ones. Sandy's family is baffled and concerned by her increasing preoccupation, and she pushes them away further by losing herself in her work. She gives up her life in order to offer a flick of hope to devasted families ... and escape the disappointments of her own. Jack Ruttle is one of those devastated people. It's been a year since his brother Donal vaished into thin air, and he has enlisted Sandy Shortt to find him. But before she is able to offer Jack the information he so desperately needs, Sandy goes missing too ... and Jack now finds himself searching for his brother, and the one woman who understood his pain. One minute Sandy is jogging through the park, the next, she can't figure out where she is. In a clearing she discovers the impossible: she has inadvertently stumbled upon the place--and people -- she's been looking for all her life. A land where all the missing people go. A world away from her loved ones and the home she ran from so long, Sandy soon resorts to her old habit again, searching. Though this time, she is desperately trying to find her way home ..
