Never Coming Back cover

Emily Kane's search for her missing family leads to a dark cover-up in Never Coming Back, revealing secrets that threaten lives.

In Never Coming Back, Emily Kane's life takes a terrifying turn when she arrives at her sister Carrie's house, only to find it empty and the door ajar. Dinner simmers on the stove, and the television flickers in the background, creating an unsettling atmosphere. With Carrie's family missing, Emily quickly realizes that something is terribly wrong. The police investigation yields no leads, prompting Emily to enlist the help of David Raker, a seasoned missing persons investigator. As Raker delves deeper into the case, he uncovers a web of secrets that suggests the family's disappearance is far from ordinary.

As Raker investigates, he discovers that the truth is shrouded in a sinister cover-up that spans decades and has cost many lives. The closer he gets to unraveling the mystery, the more dangerous the situation becomes. It's clear that someone is intent on keeping the family's secrets buried, and Raker may be putting himself in harm's way. The tension mounts as he races against time to find Emily's sister and her family before it's too late.

Never Coming Back is a gripping thriller that explores the lengths one will go to uncover the truth. With well-drawn characters and a plot that twists and turns, Tim Weaver delivers a story that keeps readers on the edge of their seats, questioning who can be trusted and what lies beneath the surface of seemingly ordinary lives.
