Waiting for you.</i><br /><br />For a decade and a half, Rachel Cunningham has chosen to lock herself away in a psychiatric facility, tortured by gaps in her memory and the certainty that she is responsible for her parents&apos; deaths. But when she learns new details about their murders, Rachel returns, in a quest for answers, to the place where she once felt safest: her family&apos;s sprawling log cabin in the remote forests of Michigan&apos;s Upper Peninsula. <br /><br />As Rachel begins to uncover what really happened on the day her parents were murdered, she learns--as her mother did years earlier--that home can be a place of unspeakable evil, and that the bond she shares with her sister might be the most poisonous of all.
