Elvis Cole takes on a missing persons case for a social media influencer in The Big Empty (#1,315) by Robert Crais in his ongoing series. Needless to say, it does not go well.
Approaching the tenth anniversary of her father's disappearance, Traci Beller wants to re-open the case after fruitless years of searching. Elvis finds it hard to turn down the cute girl-next-door muffin baker, so he agrees to look, despite the objections of her manager and staff. He doesn't expect to find any trace until he does...
And people most definitely do not want him looking. He calls in Joe Pike for assistance but too late to avoid a beating that leaves him for dead. All that does is make the pair more determined to solve the case and protect those who might still be in danger. But you can't unsee something, the quandry Elvis and Joe find themselves in.
I thought I had this one figured out part way through. I did not! And I didn't even see it coming!!
If a good mystery/thriller is your cup of tea, you can't do better than Robert Crais' Elvis Cole and Joe Pike series.
