Inspired by the unsolved murders of the Chillicothe Six, this harrowing novel tells the story of two sisters, both of whom could be the next victims, from the internationally best-selling author of Betty. 

"Capture[s] what goes horribly wrong when women don’t fit a customary victim profile... McDaniel artfully evokes each facet of their common humanity, the sinuous landscape, and defiant community in the face of evil."  -  Oprah Daily

Six women — mothers, daughters, sisters — gone missing.  Arcade and Daffodil are twins born one minute apart. With their fiery red hair and thirst for escape, they form an unbreakable bond nurtured by their grandmother’s stories. Together, they disappear into their imaginations and forge a world all their own. 

But what the two sisters can’t escape are the generational ghosts that haunt their family. Growing up in the shadow of their rural Ohio town, the sisters cling tightly to one another.  Years later, Arcade wrestles with the memories of her early life, just as a local woman is discovered drowned in the river. 

"The women of this book are clever and witchy, speaking in a poetic cadence they have created together... McDaniel is exceptionally inventive... McDaniel’s sentences are often striking, ethereal and transcendent... McDaniel pulls off an impressive twist at the finale, with a plot shift that might inspire you to start the book again if your nervous system can handle it... Stories about murdered women always fall on the savage side, but beneath that, too, is the pulse of something beautiful."  -  Danya Kukafka, The New York Times Book Review

Drawing from the true story of women killed in her native Ohio, acclaimed novelist and poet Tiffany McDaniel has written a powerful literary testament and fearless elegy for missing women everywhere.
