DA HUN FORSVANDT er fortsættelsen til HVIS JEG BLIVER (bogen bag filmen IF I STAY). Der er gået tre år siden den tragiske ulykke - og siden Mia forsvandt ud af Adams liv. Mia går på Juilliard i New York og har kastet al sin energi i celloen og den klassiske musik. Adam lever rockstjernelivet på USAs vestkyst med paparazzi og kendis-kæreste. Men ved et tilfælde mødes Mia og Adam i New York og har en enkelt aften sammen. Imens de udforsker byen, genopdager de fortiden og åbner deres hjerter for fremtiden - og for hinanden.

Derfor tager han af sted – verden rundt – for at finde hende. Men som månederne går, og Allyson ikke er til at finde eller komme i kontakt med, begynder han at spekulere på, om skæbnen nu også har så stor betydning. En bog om de valg, vi tager. Om de ulykker, der sker. Og om den lykke, man kan være heldig at finde, når de to ting tørner sammen. BARE ET ÅR er fortsættelsen til BARE EN DAG. Denne gang får vi historien fra Willems side.

Han er alt det, Allyson ikke er, og han slår fuldstændigt benene væk under hende. Da han opfordrer hende til at droppe sine planer og tage med ham til Paris, er Allyson klar. Det ligner hende ellers ikke at være så spontan, men det fører til en dag med chancer, frihed, nærhed og forelskelse: et døgn, der forandrer Allysons liv. En bog om kærlighed, rejser og identitet, og om hvordan tilfældigheder kan ændre ens liv. Af forfatteren til HVIS JEG BLIVER
