Nor does she expect herself to be caught up in a war that's been brewing between the Orkestrels and the tyrant King Stephen. None of these people are what Colleen expected from reading fantasy stories. They're alien folks who are hard to tell apart and it's even harder to divine their motives. All Colleen wants to do is get back home and when a fairy named Hexandria seems to befriend her, she thinks she might find her path, but Hexandria has an entirely different plan for Colleen. There's no handsome prince to save her here. Can Colleen's active imagination, her sense of humor, and her good nature undermine the evil that's been spreading for decades in Talamhsióga? Or will she be trapped forever, another victim of intolerance and paranoia?

The booming North Dakota oil business is spawning “man camps,” shantytowns full of men hired to work on the rigs, in towns without enough housing to accommodate them. In such twilight spaces, it’s easy for a person to vanish. And when two young men in their first year on the job disappear without a trace, only their mothers believe there’s hope of finding them. Despite reassurances that the police are on the case, the two women think the oil company is covering up the disappearances—and maybe something more. Colleen, used to her decorous life in a wealthy Massachusetts suburb, is determined to find her son. And hard-bitten Shay, from the wrong side of the California tracks, is the only person in town even willing to deal with her—because she’s on the same mission. Overtaxed by worry, exhaustion, and fear, these two unlikely partners question each other’s methods and motivations, but must work together against the town of strangers if they want any chance of finding their lost boys. But what they uncover could destroy them both... Sure to please fans of Sandra Brown and Gillian Flynn, The Missing Place is a moving chronicle of survival, determination, and powerful bonds forged in the face of adversity.
