When his teenaged son becomes the prime suspect in a child's disappearance, a father must protect him from the community's steadily growing suspicion--even when he himself is not entirely convinced of his son's innocence.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Eric Moore has a prosperous business, a comfortable home, a stable family life in a quiet town. Then, on an ordinary night, his teenage son Keith babysits Amy Giordano, the eight-year-old daughter of a neighboring family. The next morning Amy is missing, and Eric isn't sure his son is innocent. <p/>In his desperate attempt to hold his family together by proving his-and the community's-suspicions wrong, Eric finds himself in a vortex of doubt and broken trust.

Of his brother's hints that he knows things he's afraid to say? <p/>In a heart-wrenching and gut-wrenching (New York Daily News) race against time and mistrust, Eric must discover what has happened to Amy Giordano and face the long-buried family secrets he has so carefully ignored. <br><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>"Thomas Cook writes like a wounded angel, and <i>Red Leaves</i> is one of his masterworks."
