Ivy Calloway built her career asking why nobody believed the missing girls of small towns. She never expected the answer to lead back to herself.
When a decade old missing person flyer surfaces during research for her hit true crime podcast, Ivy recognizes the eyes in the photograph before she understands why. The girl is named Iris Mercer, vanished from a town called Marsh Bend the same autumn a seventeen year old named Dahlia Kessler disappeared without a trace, and the deeper Ivy digs, the more her own carefully built adult life starts to feel like a story someone else wrote for her, on purpose, to keep her safe from a man the whole town still trusts.
The Vanishing Point pulls you between two timelines, ten years and one erased identity apart, as Ivy uncovers a truth her own memory was surgically built to hide, and races to finish what a terrified fifteen year old could never make anyone believe.
