Six months ago, Jim Hoke�s daughter Wendy disappeared from her room. All Jim caught was a glimpse of a hulking figure at the window�the kind of late night vision that�s easily written off as a hallucination. No one believes Jim�s story�and six months later, the retired pathologist is just looking for anyone who�ll still listen. And even if he finds someone, should they believe him? Jim already retired early for planting evidence against an alleged killer. His word doesn�t mean much�and it means even less with him as a suspect in Wendy�s disappearance. He can�t leave town, he can�t forget what he saw, and he get any sleep thanks to the nightmares. With Wendy�s disappearance declared the coldest of cases, Jim believes he�s the only one who cares about finding his daughter. And he�s got a withered Father�s Day card in his pocket to remind him�all he can do is his best. So he better step it up. Jim goes into business for himself, tracking leads and harassing anyone who�s polite enough to listen to his story. He dives into rabbit hole after rabbit hole, until he meets someone else like him. Then another, then another, a whole community of people who�ve lost someone to a cryptid they call the Floating Man�just like the huge creature Jim saw take Wendy. Suddenly, Wendy�s abductor has a name�the Floating Man. And Jim�s obsession has direction�he�s got to track down the Floating Man, uncover his crimes and free not just his daughter Wendy, but everyone who's been lost.
