Overview

Some secrets are better left buried. Some people are better left missing. To the world, he's a grieving best friend. To the wife, he's a persistent ghost. To Detective Luca, he's a prime suspect. When a man vanishes in southwest Florida, the locals call it a tragedy. But Detective Frank Luca, fresh from the cynical streets of New Jersey, sees the cracks in the postcard-perfect facade immediately. He isn't looking at the evidence; he's looking at the people left behind. The Best Friend: He's been waiting in the wings for years. He's already tasted the life-and the wife-of the man who disappeared. Now that his ""brother"" is gone, he's ready to claim his prize. The Wife: She's done with the secrets. The affair was a mistake she's desperate to bury, and her husband's disappearance is a nightmare she just wants to wake up from. But how do you move on when your past refuses to let go? Luca needed a reboot, not a soap opera. But as he digs into the missing man's life, he finds a web of obsession and resentment that makes the Florida heat feel cold. In a town where everyone is playing a part, Frank has to figure out who's mourning a loss-and who's celebrating a murder. If you love psychological twists and complex characters, Vanished is your next obsession. It's not just a ""whodunnit""-it's a ""who's-betraying-who. Fans of The Silent Patient, Harlan Coben, and Big Little Lies will devour this sun-drenched mystery of obsession and lies. ""A masterclass in Florida Noir. Luca is a character you'll root for from page one."" The Luca Mysetery Series are all standalone reads.
