Summary
It has been a year since Bobby’s death, and Buck has never been the same. Grief eats at him in quiet ways the rest of the 118 can’t quite reach, so when he announces he’s taking a break and heading abroad, everyone tells themselves he deserves the space. A week later, he disappears. Weeks turn into months, and the people he left behind are forced to believe the unthinkable—that Buck walked away for good. Until the headlines change, and the word “presumed dead” settles over them like ash.
What none of them know is that Buck’s story didn’t end there. His grief, his secrets, and the dangerous truth he’s been carrying all lead back to a past no one at the 118 ever imagined. And when the pieces finally surface, the loss they thought they understood becomes something else entirely.
How will the 118 deal with losing people they love, only to find out later that it was all a lie?
OR
Buck disappeared, and the truth might destroy what’s left of the family they built.
