Every Missing Piece

Blurb

Maddy Gaines can't help but see danger everywhere she looks. When a new kid shows up in her small town, Maddy suspects he isn't just any boy-he's Billy Holcomb, the missing person the police have been searching for the last six months. Except, who will believe her? Definitely not her mom or her stepdad. Or the chief of police.
But when Maddie convinces her best friend Cress to keep investigating Billy Holcomb, they find out more than they bargained for. As they try to put the pieces together, Maddie faces her own demons that she's been running away from all this time. Written in a seamless middle-grade voice by rising author Melanie Conklin, this coming-of-age novel proves that even the most flawed of characters contain multitudes.
