THE GIRL WHO WAS TAKEN
A Story of Two Girls . . .
The One Who Returns
and the One Who Doesn't
Megan McDonald and Nicole Cutty are high school seniors when they are abducted from a small North Carolina town. Two weeks later, Megan miraculously reappears, having escaped from a bunker hidden deep in the woods. Nicole is never seen again.
One year later, Megan has written a bestselling memoir about her time in captivity, and about her escape. As the memoir climbs the best-sellers lists, Megan is transformed from local hero to national celebrity.
Dr. Livia Cutty is a fellow in forensic pathology, training at the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in North Carolina. Her sister, Nicole, has been missing a year when the body of a young man – an apparent suicide – shows up in her morgue and offers Livia the first clue to Nicole’s fate. The body also tips Livia off that everything in Megan McDonald's bestselling memoir is a lie.
