Hannah Gunner, once a carefree child, is faced with secrets, lies, and betrayal. A life-changing event during her adolescent years forces her to confront a past that she no longer recognizes. Now, questioning everything she thought she knew, Hannah struggles with the person she is supposed to be! With the help of her boyfriend and her closest friend, they discover several clues that may hold the missing links to her life.

A tattered box filled with worn-out letters holds some of the answers that she needs, but not all of them. With an assist from her aunt, and a visitor from her past, Hannah manages to track down the only person in the world who can answer her questions—the Captain! But why did those closest to her lie in the first place? Will Hannah ever find the answers that she needs to bring her peace? 

Suspenseful, engaging, and with twists and turns that make it impossible to put down, this is a book filled with surprises.

Author Amanda M. Thrasher’s Likes & Dislikes

It's always interesting to see if people have the same likes and dislikes as 'you.' 

Some of my favorite places, things, likes, and dislikes, are the following: 

1.          Love to visit the beach but wouldn't want to live there full time.
2.          Love the woods but scared of them at night. 
3.          Love silence. Doesn't bother me a bit.
4.          Love to stay busy, that includes my mind, being still is difficult for me.
5.          Love to look at the color 'green' specifically as in pastures, grass, trees, nature, yet green isn't anywhere near one of my favorite colors. 
6.          Love to hear my children and grandchildren laugh. 
7.          Love a good ol' fashioned P.B. & J.
8.          Dislike indecisiveness.
9.          Dislike negativity.
10.       Dislike crowds.
