When seven-year-old Lily Walker disappears one rainy evening, Detective Caleb Mason is called to the small town of Riverside to lead the search. What begins as a desperate missing-persons case quickly twists into something far darker. The clues don't add up, the witnesses lie, and the trail seems deliberately staged. As the hours tick away, Mason uncovers buried secrets that link the missing girl to another tragedy long forgotten. The deeper he digs, the more he realizes someone has been controlling every step of the investigation-and he's the pawn in their plan. With each passing hour, truth and deception blur until Mason must face the shocking reality: finding Lily means unearthing a truth that could destroy more than one life. Seven Hours Missing is a gripping mystery of revenge, guilt, and redemption-where every minute matters, and every secret comes with a cost.
