Before leaving for a black-tie affair in New York City, Margaret and Steve Frawley celebrate the third birthday of their twin girls, Kathy and Kelly, with a party at their new home in Ridgefield, Conn. Later that night, when Margaret can't reach the babysitter, she contacts the Ridgefield police. The frantic¹ couple return home to find the children missing and a ransom² note demanding $8 million. Though the Frawleys meet all the conditions, only Kelly turns up in a car along with a dead driver and a suicide note saying that Kathy has died. But Kelly's telepathic messages from her sister keep telling her differently, and Margaret won't give up hope. Even the most skeptical³ law enforcement officers and the FBI, who pursue suspects from New York to Cape⁴ Cod⁵, begin to believe Kelly is on to something. Clues from ordinary people lead to a riveting⁶ conclusion. Rivaling Clark's debut-Where Are the Children?-this suspense⁷ thriller⁸ is certain to send terror into the heart of any parent.

Margaret 和 Steve夫妇在庆祝完双胞胎女儿三岁生日之后，便去了纽约参加黑领带晚餐会。当他们返回家中时，警察却已经等候多时，并告知他们的双胞胎女儿失踪了，房间里还留下一张要求八百万赎金的纸条。尽管Steve答应了绑匪的种种要求并支付了赎金，却只有Kelly被发现藏在一间废弃餐馆后的汽车里。司机死于枪击，同时又留下了一张纸条，上面写着Kathy死了，尸体已经扔到大海里。

但双胞胎之间的精神感应却没间断过，Kelly源源不断的收到Kathy传给她的信息，这也使Margaret越来越坚信Kathy依然活着……
