State of Preservation by Marie Force
A missing child. A nation watching. A family pushed to the brink.
When Lieutenant Sam Holland’s phone rings with the words every parent dreads—“Ethan is missing”—her world stops cold. Her eleven-year-old nephew has vanished without a trace from the streets of Washington, D.C., and the First Family is thrown into chaos. As both aunt and investigator, Sam must balance heart-wrenching fear with her duty to uncover the truth.
While the D.C. Metropolitan Police, the FBI and U.S. Marshals race to find Ethan, dark threads begin to unravel—messages hidden in phones, an online subculture preying on boys and whispers of radicalization that strike terrifyingly close to home. With her husband, President Nick Cappuano, facing questions about Ethan and her family breaking under the weight of uncertainty, Sam’s instinct tells her this case is about more than one missing child… it’s about preserving everything she loves most.
From the corridors of the White House to the shadowy corners of the internet, State of Preservation delivers high-stakes suspense, emotional depth and the unbreakable bond of a family fighting for one of their own.
