She doesn't show up for school, and there is no answer at her home when the principal's office tries to reach her. Eliza's classmates come up with all sorts of theories--maybe she was in a car accident; or kidnapped; or in the FBI's witness protection program. And the adults don't seem to take her disappearance seriously.Eliza begins to feel as if shs is the only one who cares. And in her own quiet way, she knows what she must do: find her missing teacher.
