A sophisticated, character-driven thriller in which a romantic rendezvous in Paris turns disastrous after the disappearance of a new lover.

Genie St. Onge's heart is broken more often than it's not—but that doesn't stop her from diving in head-first when she meets Jacob Ford while traveling in the Philippines. Their connection is instantaneous and consuming, and they agree to meet again in Paris. In their dreamy rental apartment in the eleventh arrondissement, their world becomes a heady mix of sugared pastries and rumpled bedsheets. The feelings between them are undeniable, intoxicating, and soon, they're plotting a future together.

Until Jacob disappears.

Genie knows Jacob would never leave her. Not by choice. When phone calls to hospitals turn up nothing, she grows convinced that someone must have taken him. It's the only explanation.

Under the scrutiny of the French police, however, Genie's story doesn't quite hold up—and she learns that Jacob may have told a few white lies himself. Their neighbors have plenty of opinions about Genie, and she becomes increasingly distraught the longer Jacob is missing. The truth remains elusive, and Genie swears she has no idea what happened to him—so why doesn't her story align with anyone else’s?
