<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Chronicles the harrowing forty-day period following the disappearance of the author's mother, an emotional journey of detective interviews and wild hopes before her mother's body was found in the ocean and their family was forced to confront painful truths.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A beautifully written, intensely poignant memoir that looks at grief, family dynamics, and what happens when your world comes crashing down.</b> <p/><b>A twenty-five-year-old recent graduate of Columbia University's MFA program, Lindsay Harrison began writing <i>Missing </i>as a way to cope with a terrible loss.</b> During her sophomore year at Brown University, Lindsay received a phone call from her brother that her mother was missing. Forty days later they discover the unthinkable: their mother's body had been found in the ocean. <p/><i>Missing </i>is at first a page-turning account of those first forty days, as it chronicles dealings with detectives, false sightings, wild hope, and deep despair. The balance of the story is a candid, emotional exploration of a daughter's search for solace after tragedy as she tries to understand who her mother truly was, makes peace with her grief, and becomes closer to her father and brothers as her mother's death forces her to learn more about her mother than she ever knew before.
