Eleven years ago, six kindergartners went missing without a trace. After all that time, the people left behind moved on, or tried to. Until today. Today five of those kids return.

But she thinks she remembers Lucas. Lucas remembers Scarlett, too, except they're entirely unable to recall where they've been or what happened to them. Neither of them remember the sixth victim, Max--the only one who hasn't come back. Which leaves Max's sister, Avery, wanting answers.

Unbelievable


Book Description

Now the Netflix Limited Series Unbelievable, starring Toni Collette, Merritt Wever, and Kaitlyn Dever • Two Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists tell the riveting true crime story of a teenager charged with lying about having been raped—and the detectives who followed a winding path to arrive at the truth. “Gripping . . . [with a] John Grisham–worthy twist.”—Emily Bazelon, New York Times Book Review (Editors’ Choice) On August 11, 2008, eighteen-year-old Marie reported that a masked man broke into her apartment near Seattle, Washington, and raped her. Within days police and even those closest to Marie became suspicious of her story. The police swiftly pivoted and began investigating Marie. Confronted with inconsistencies in her story and the doubts of others, Marie broke down and said her story was a lie—a bid for attention. Police charged Marie with false reporting, and she was branded a liar. More than two years later, Colorado detective Stacy Galbraith was assigned to investigate a case of sexual assault. Describing the crime to her husband that night, Galbraith learned that the case bore an eerie resemblance to a rape that had taken place months earlier in a nearby town. She joined forces with the detective on that case, Edna Hendershot, and the two soon discovered they were dealing with a serial rapist: a man who photographed his victims, threatening to release the images online, and whose calculated steps to erase all physical evidence suggested he might be a soldier or a cop. Through meticulous police work the detectives would eventually connect the rapist to other attacks in Colorado—and beyond. Based on investigative files and extensive interviews with the principals, Unbelievable is a serpentine tale of doubt, lies, and a hunt for justice, unveiling the disturbing truth of how sexual assault is investigated today—and the long history of skepticism toward rape victims.

Two gorgeous men, ghostly rumors, and a family secret. What could go wrong? Kaylee Evans can't believe her luck. As an archivist for historical documents, work isn't exactly rolling in. So when she lands a very part time gig at the Historical Society in Providence—birthplace of her favorite period author Alistair K. Ashworth—it's as if all her dreams have come true. But it's clear she'll need a second job if she wants to eat on a regular basis. And that's when luck strikes again. She answers an ad for a housekeeper at a historic Victorian mansion—a mansion that just happens to be the Alistair K. Ashworth House, circa 1860. Ecstatic to think she might have full run of Ashworth's family home and maybe some long-forgotten manuscripts, Kaylee's determined to get the job. Except that she has zero experience as a housekeeper. And the butler who opens the door bears a strong resemblance to a creature from one of Ashworth's books. And old Mr. Richard Ashworth, a descendent of the famous writer, believes she's someone from 1945. Oh, and the old house is reputed to be haunted by Alistair's ghost. Attorney Carter Harrison can't believe his luck. Between the forgetful old patriarch, the eccentric household staff, and what might or might not be paranormal activity, Ashworth's estate can't find a housekeeper who'll stay for more than a week. So when Kaylee shows up asking for work, Carter hires her on the spot. She wouldn't know formal tea service if it fell on her head, but she seems eager to learn. And he has to admit, it has been way too long since he's spent time with a smart, beautiful, curvy woman. His immediate attraction flares even hotter when Garrett Ashworth arrives, as wickedly charming as ever. Carter and the rogue Ashworth heir have history, and seeing him again heats Carter's blood. And clearly, Kaylee's as well. But when strange noises in the attic thrust the three of them into each other's arms, they find more than just passion. And when they discover an obscure document that puts Garrett and his sister's inheritance in jeopardy, they know something strange—and dangerous—looms over them all… Reader note: contains MMF bisexual ménage, hot romance elements, BBW, and male/male love.
