Watch Me Disappear by Janelle Brown
One weekend, Billie Flanagan heads out on a solo hike, leaving her husband, Jonathan, and her daughter, Olive, behind. It was supposed to be just a quick trip, 
but Billie never returns, leaving Jonathan and Olive to pick up the pieces. But when Olive begins having seizures and mysterious visions of her mother, she begins to believe that her mother may still be alive, in trouble, and in need of help. As much as Jonathan wants to put the past behind him, he has no choice but to delve into the details of Billie’s disappearance if he wants to help his daughter—and the truth is that his marriage to Billie was nothing like he thought it was—and there’s a chance that Billie’s hiking accident was no accident at all.
