BEFORE YOU START
The premise
Shelby Tebow goes missing. Then Meredith Dickey and her six-year-old daughter, Delilah, disappear from the same community. Eleven years later, Delilah comes back, and the questions about what happened are open again.
Why the setup appeals
- Three people missing from one place
- Shelby, Meredith and Delilah all disappear from the same community. Choose it if you want more than one missing-person case in the same story.
- A return after eleven years
- Kubica says her starting idea was someone coming back after being missing and having to reenter ordinary life. Choose it if that return interests you as much as the disappearances.

Something to keep in mind
