Going, Going, Gone

Once the hammer comes down, there’s no getting out…

20 years ago, Imani’s best friend Kaitlin vanished.

Now, Kaitlin’s crumbling childhood home is up for auction.

Buying this house is Imani’s chance to finally resolve her grief. It might even ease her guilty conscience surrounding Kaitlin’s disappearance.

But fixer-uppers always come with nasty surprises.

And as Imani throws herself into the renovations, she discovers secrets that make her question all her memories of Kaitlin, and of the night she never came home.

Could restoring no.6 Cross Street really help Imani uncover the truth? Or will winning the auction prove to be a dangerous – even deadly – mistake?
