SUMMARY:
Trisha Hanover goes missing the same day that Robyn Hunter says some very mean things to her at school. That afternoon, Carl Hanover hires Robyn’s father’s private security company to find his stepdaughter.

Trisha often runs away when she is stressed out, but she always calls her mother - only this time she hasn't. Together with help from her school friends, Robyn decides to try to find Trisha and reunite her with her family.

Life as a runaway on the streets is tough and dangerous and Robyn unwittingly put Trisha's life in even greater danger.

A letter, bugged by Trisha's stepdad in hopes of finding her, leads him right to her . . . and he needs her to disappear forever…
