About This Book

Early Saturday morning small town detective, Tony Petrocelli, listens to a distraught mother tell him her ten-year-old daughter, Ashley, is missing. Tony and his hung-over, party animal partner, Eddy, interview the family and discover the inside of this pristine home isn’t anything like its façade. A self-absorbed, austere father who presumes to tell the detectives what to do, and a mother who vacillates between rigid and weepy. The neighborhood canvass elicits only rumor and innuendo amid tales of two fishermen off in their motor-homes. Tony trusts his head to follow the conflicting leads gleaned from TV news, while Eddy trusts his gut declaring the father did it. But, after hours of interrogation dad doesn’t crack. As lead after lead is followed the investigation seems to hit a dead end. The digging for information leads someone to try and kill the detectives with a car bomb. Who’s behind the incident, and why? Meanwhile does Ashley, trussed up in one of the motorhomes, have the wits to use what she learned from dealing with her manipulative father to survive? A young girl's cunning and bravery. A dedicated detective's determination to find her. Will these be enough to keep Ashley alive?
