What does it mean to be abused? What does it mean to admit that you have been abused? Where does something as complex and strange as pain begin and end?

One day Jodee Warren vanishes. She leaves no trace and no one to remember her, not even her family seems to remember. Jodee Warren was one of those people; quiet and polite, forever in the background able to disappear long before anyone even noticed they were gone. Jodee Warren has lived her whole life as a ghost. So, the question arises when did Jodee Warren first disappear?

On the ferry that misty afternoon?

When her daughters emotionally abandon her out of indifference, fear, or boredom?

Under her husband's constant belittling and snide remarks?

When her father dismissed her for his dream of a first-born son?

Maybe in understanding what brought Jodee Warren to Kokanee Bay Washington the mystery of where she went can be unravelled.
