While parked at a gas station, Rhonda sees something so incongruously surreal that at first she hardly recognizes it as a crime in progress. She watches, unmoving, as someone dressed in a rabbit costume kidnaps a young girl. Devastated over having done nothing, Rhonda joins the investigation. But the closer she comes to identifying the abductor, the nearer she gets to the troubling truth about another missing child: her best friend, Lizzy, who vanished years before.
From the author of the acclaimed Promise Not to Tell comes a chilling and mesmerizing tale of shattered innocence, guilt, and ultimate redemption.

MY REVIEW
If it is possible to say for a mystery thriller style book but this was a fun read! Being such a short book, it certainly does pack a punch and fits in quite a lot of twists and turns along the way.
There are two separate main time lines in this story - one is back in the past and the disappearance of Lizzie and one is the disappearance of a new girl. Both had mention of a rabbit in some way - either they were in the woods with a rabbit or was taken by someone dressed as one. This is one of those classic who done it and are they going to find the girl alive type stories but it is exactly what I wanted when I picked up this story and exactly what I got.
I was not surprised by much of the story, including the twists and turns, but the story of getting to the end was really fun and the writing was so easy to follow with the plot being fast paced, which is exactly what it should be.
