The Vanishing of Layla Daniels

By John White

Layla Daniels is not just talented-she's transcendent. A brilliant young Black woman gifted in music, athletics, poetry, and visual art, Layla rises to become a cultural force by the age of nineteen. She performs at the White House, mentors with chart-topping artists, holds state track records, and releases a poetry collection that becomes a manifesto for young women across racial and class lines.But during the summer after her freshman year of college, Layla disappears after accepting an invitation from a charismatic White House aide to a retreat in the Hamptons. Alongside her is Jeremiah Pope, a world-class sprinter, and Brandon, his mysterious childhood friend. No ransom note. No farewell. Just... gone.
