Nate and his mother have run away from her boyfriend Gary. They are staying in a small cottage that is worn down but far away from him. But when Nate's mother doesn't return after going to get groceries he is left all alone and wondering what happened to her. Fortunately there is food, water, shelter and a girl Kitty who insists that they solve an old treasure hunt. Nate also has Sam, his former imaginary friend, who has returned to help. But as the days go by Nate becomes more and more concerned. Where is his mom?
There were times in this book that I thought I knew where I was going and worried it was getting too scary, too edgy but the ending was great - just the right amount of tension and a good resolution.
