But when she mysteriously disappears following the death of a high ranking official at their hospital, it calls everything into question. As the death is ruled a homicide, Jon finds himself searching not only for his lost love, but for answers. He soon uncovers a chilling truth about an experimental technology system at their hospital, one he believes is to blame for the patient's murder. Desperate to absolve Sara, he searches for proof to convince others, but ends up uncovering his own startling role in the experiment.

[A Wanderer · Rating 5 out of 5]

Listened on audible! The narration was wonderful. What a lovely short story full of intrigue, suspense, and heart-break. I guessed the twist just as you find out what it is. Knowing beforehand did not stop it from giving me all the feels.

Highly recommend if you are looking for a quick suspenseful, scifi, romance read 👍
