Marianne was going to protest, but it might be easier not to. 'Just hold on, little lady, I want you to hear this too.' Marianne said, 'Would you like to switch stools, so you can be next to one another?' Marianne hoped that it would make the mustache man and straw-haired woman disappear. She peered into her glass as if it were a diamond she was sizing up for an engagement ring. Marianne was the unlucky luncheon meat in their bad-pickup sandwich. The over-bleached blonde with brittle hair of straw he was trying to impress with this stimulating banter was on her left. He had a big bushy mustache straight out of a seventies porn flick. She made a face and shot the man a quick glance.

For Tia and Mike Baye, the question they must answer is this: When it comes to your kids, is it possible to know too much? She thinks it is Adam Baye standing just outside the camera’s range but when Adam goes missing, it soon becomes clear that something deep and sinister has infected their community. Meanwhile, browsing through an online memorial for Spencer put together by his classmates, Betsy Hill is struck by a photo that appears to have been taken on the night of her son’s death. They install a sophisticated spy program on Adam’s computer, and within days are jolted by a message from an unknown correspondent addressed to their son: “Just stay quiet and all safe.” But their sixteen-year-old son Adam has been unusually distant lately, and after the suicide of his classmate Spencer Hill-the latest in a string of issues at school-they can’t help but worry.
