A tragic car accident, and two brothers are left to cope. No one seems to notice that the boys are left alone; the older one takes care of the younger, and the years drag on.

Then she arrives. She is lost like them, and she glides into their lives almost imperceptibly. They are almost a family. Almost.

When she suddenly disappears, what else can they do but get in the car and search? The brothers don't agree on much lately, but this is unquestionable: no one could need her as much as they do.

"Heartbreaking and intimate family portrait, a mystery, and road trip epic all in one - culminating in a conclusion that will stay with you long after the last page. All the Night Gone is a stunning debut from a talented young writer who shows a sophistication and mastery of language beyond her years." --Silvia Pikal, editor/co-founder of New Forum literary magazine.
