Loved it! This is topping my list of favorite Sager novels. 

Ethan is haunted by the disappearance of his best friend 30 years prior. Returning to his childhood home unexpectedly he’s forced to confront the events surrounding that day. 

I enjoyed how the perspective was limited in the adolescent POVs, the way details were muddled or heightened. The mundane cul de sac where neighbors have their own secrets, the ominous “institute”. Great execution.

I did guess the ending, but found it well plotted
