The Summer She Vanished By Jessica Irena Smith

A MISSING GIRL. A MURDERED WOMAN.
HOW LONG CAN A SMALL TOWN BURY ITS PAST?

Forty years ago, local teacher Sister Francesca Pepitone was found strangled in a parking lot on the outskirts of Boweridge.

One week later, seventeen-year-old Minna Larson disappeared. No one has seen or heard from her since.

The cases were never linked, and neither was solved, but Minna’s niece Maggie is certain there’s a connection because before she vanished, Minna was telling people she knew who had murdered Sister Fran, and that she had the evidence to prove it.

But no one believed her because there is one thing everyone can agree on.
Minna lies.

A blistering and shocking thriller that takes you on a taut and compelling journey to find the truth behind the story of a missing teen, a murdered nun, and the dark secret that connects them. Perfect for fans of SWEET LITTLE LIES, THE ROANOKE GIRLS and THE GIRLS WHO DISAPPEARED.
