Abductions and murder are not what ex-DCI Luke Sackville expected when he left the police after tragedy struck his family. Luke’s return to the workplace was meant to be a soft landing, but when a woman vanishes after being accused of taking bribes, he is assigned a disparate team and tasked with tracking her down. Their search becomes more urgent when her disappearance is linked to the death of a second woman. When a third goes missing, the hunt becomes a race against time.

Revisado: 12-08-23
This is a fast-paced mystery/thriller set in and around Bath, England and focuses on ex-DCI Luke Sackville. He starts a new job expecting it to be a soft, boring corporate job. But he isn't assigned the job he thought he was getting, and his team is comprised of misfits and rejects from other departments. Luke's instincts and skills brings out the best of this oddball squad and they meld into a competent team.
The team is challenged when a woman from work vanishes, and then her disappearance is linked to the death of another female co-worker. When a third goes missing Luke knows that time is short to find the missing women alive. I loved Luke's no-nonsense demeanor with pompous people and his ability to build up his teams' confidence and bring out the best in them. Despite his painful past, he is still at the top of his game and expertly finds one lead after another before the police. each member of the team has their own strengths and their quirks add humor to the tense story. The action keeps coming and so many twists are thrown in you have to really pay attention to catch them all. The author does a great job of adding several red herrings that keep the reader guessing until the end.
If you want a quick and easy mystery/thriller to spend an afternoon with, I recommend you pick this book up.
