The Missing Hours 

A woman’s disappearance in western England draw a pair of sibling detectives into a baffling murder case in “this intricately plotted crime novel” (Publishers Weekly).

 

In the sleepy borderland between England and Wales, serious crimes are rare. But now Det. Constable Leah Mackay and her brother, Det. Sergeant Finn Hale, are fielding two disturbing calls on the same day. Psychologist Selena Cole had been at a playground with her children when she disappeared. Then the body of attorney Dominic Newell was found on a remote mountain road. Soon enough, the sibling detectives find their respective investigations inextricably linked. Then the mystery deepens when Selena reappears alive and unhurt twenty hours later.

 

Selena’s work consulting on kidnap and ransom cases has brought her into close contact with ruthless criminals and international drug lords. But now, as she walks back into her life, blood-spattered, claiming no memory of the preceding hours, Leah can’t be sure if she is a victim, a liar, or a suspect. As Leah and Finn delve into each case, untangling a web of secrets and betrayals, they are entirely unprepared for the dangers they are about to uncover.
