Abby Mason has a wonderful relationship with her fiance, Jake and his child, Emma. Abby takes Emma for a walk along a beach in San Francisco but looks away from her momentarily, only to have Emma disappear in the fog.

Abby is frantic...she searches everywhere for her and calls the police to get them involved. So begins Abby's search...for the little girl lost and eventually herself.

The story chronicles the weeks and then months from the moment that Emma disappears and Abby realizes that she has lost her. Throughout the ordeal she tries to keep her relationship with Jake together but finds it harder and harder to do so as he continuously pushes her away.

When he has given up hope on finding his little girl, Abby prevails and continues the search. She cannot live with herself for having looked away for a few seconds only to have Emma yanked from their lives. Abby firmly believes that Emma is alive some where waiting for her and her dad.

The ending was a bit of a let down for me in that it all came together a little too easily. I mean, what are the chances? Also, I was let down with Jake's character. He obviously was not the man that Abby thought he was.

The writing in this book was well done and I enjoyed it though I agree with some of the other reviewers in that some parts just dragged on for far too long. (less) "
