Shelby never imagined that her family would be the subject of a police investigation, but that's what happens when three teenage clients of her fashion photographer father go missing. Shelby's seemingly perfect life of hot sports cars, travel, and unlimited shopping trips crumbles when her dad is named a prime suspect in the girls' disappearance.

What's the connection between the missing girls and her father? Is he as innocent as he claims? Does the great-looking guy who works with her dad have anything to do with the threatening e-mails she's been receiving?
