The Last Thing She Saw - Nina Laurin - Bog

"After a flood destroys the historic center of a rural Quebec town, a child's body is discovered. The remains are decades-old and nearly impossible to identify, yet the whole town knows at once who they belong to. Nine-year-old Michelle Fortier vanished without a trace in 1979, and her fate remained unknown--until now. Stephanie O'Malley grew up in her mother's crumbling trailer listening to stories of Michelle's vanishing-stories she once tried to turn into a podcast without much success. Although Stephanie left Marly fifteen years ago and vowed never to return, she finds herself back with her tempestuous mother Laura, her high school sweetheart Luc, and the entire town in an uproar as it grapples with its long-buried secrets. While Stephanie struggles to separate the truth from wild rumors about witchcraft and town-wide conspiracies, Laura is consumed by the strange feeling that all this has happened before. But as the story takes a turn for the sordid, the bombshell drops: the body might not be Michelle after all"--
