<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Maggie McFarrell is still reeling from her police officer husband's suspicious death when she sends her only child, Emma, off to college in the city, leaving a very empty nest and a palpable sense of dread. After 18 years of knowing where her daughter was every minute of every day, sending her out into the world alone is almost unthinkable. But Maggie forces herself to back away from constant texting and Facetiming, to give her daughter the space all the online articles say she needs to become an independent person. And then, just as Maggie starts to relax and believe that everything is going to be okay, Emma disappears. WHERE SHE WENT is a story of letting go, and the secrets that surface when the person keeping them is gone.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Women's fiction with a wrenching twist, <em>Where She Went</em> follows one mother desperate to know which secrets took her daughter away from what should have been a normal college experience.</strong></p><p><strong>What happens when your worst fear comes true?</strong></p><p>Her only daughter has just gone away to college, and Maggie O'Farrell knows she's turning into one of those anxious empty-nesters she used to mock.

But Maggie can't shake the feeling that something terrible is about to happen to Emma.</p><p>And then, just as Maggie starts to relax, her daughter disappears.</p><p>The clues are disturbing. An empty dorm room where Emma was supposedly living. A mysterious boy described as Future Husband in her phone. Dormmates who seem more sinister than friendly.
