If You're Gone — Brittany Goodwin

A thrilling debut that explores the heart-wrenching reality faced by those with missing loved ones, If You're Gone is a coming-of-age mystery about young love, loss, and unfailing faith.

Lillian White's plans for the perfect summer are shattered when her boyfriend, Brad, mysteriously disappears the night of his graduation ceremony - the same night he tells her he loves her for the first time. After law enforcement dismisses the case, classifying Brad as voluntarily missing, Lillian becomes desperate to prove that he couldn't have just walked away. Not from his friends. Not from his family. Not from her. But her quest for the truth reveals more questions than answers as she uncovers secrets from Brad's past engineered to be kept from everyone in their small town. She is soon forced to question everything she thought she knew about Brad and their relationship, as well as her own faith, in hopes of finding him. What she discovers may bring her one step closer to solving the mystery...or change her life forever.
