A Digital Predator. A Missing Woman. A Race Against Time.

A woman vanishes online.
A digital predator is watching.
And every second brings another life closer to ending.

When Emily Underwood disappears in front of thousands of loyal followers, the police dismiss it as another runaway influencer chasing attention. But Emily’s fans know something is wrong—terribly wrong—and they turn to the only people who will listen: the struggling St. Isidore Chronicle.

Joy is a reporter who is desperate for a story big enough to revive her career—and to save the small-town newspaper that’s hanging on by a thread. Amanda, the sharp young intern she’s mentoring, is hungry to prove herself before the Chronicle’s doors close for good. Together, they dive into Emily’s online world—and straight into the crosshairs of a killer who knows exactly how to hide in the digital dark.

Emily didn’t just vanish.
Someone took her.
Someone who’s done this before.

As Joy and Amanda race to uncover hidden messages, deleted profiles, and the shadowy online communities linked to Emily’s disappearance, a new woman steps forward. She isn’t running. She isn’t hiding.
She’s hunting him.

What follows is a relentless chase through secrets, lies, and the invisible traps of the internet—where each click leaves a trail, and one mistake could make you the next target.

In Never Again, nothing online is ever truly erased—
and in St. Isidore, even a dying newspaper might be the only thing standing between a killer and his next victim.
