(2) YA Caroline's eleven-year-old autistic brother Dylan goes missing. Five days later, the police find Dylan--as well as Ethan, a teen who's been missing for four years. Caroline and Ethan develop a friendship, but as Ethan confronts his abuse, he must decide what he should tell Caroline about his complicity in Dylan's abduction. Caroline's family's struggles ring true; the topic of sexual abuse is treated with great sensitivity.
