Sometimes payback comes when you least expect it. When writer Kathy Rawls hires Snowe Agency to investigate the disappearance of her drunkard and ne'er-do-well husband, it seems that there's really not much to investigate.

Sometimes payback comes when you least expect it. When writer Kathy Rawls hires Snowe Agency to investigate the disappearance of her drunkard and ne'er-do-well husband, it seems that there's really not much to investigate. John Rawls was last seen leaving the local bar after a typical bender, and no one is sure of his whereabouts. But something about the story doesn't sit right with Jeff Kolnikoff, the agency's resident researcher and telekinetic. While typically reluctant to be actively engaged in the agency's investigations due to his shy, awkward nature, the neatness of the scenario Mrs. Rawls paints bothers Jeff, and he starts looking into the missing man's life. He quickly finds that John Rawls might not simply have gotten drunk and taken off for parts unknown. After two more people vanish under similar circumstances, Jeff becomes certain they weren't abducted but were actually murdered instead. As he discovers more commonalities between the disappearances, he realizes that he's stumbled upon something far larger and much more sinister than anyone had anticipated. All of the missing people were awful human beings, but anyone with motive for revenge was nowhere near the scene of the crimes with unshakeable alibis. Will Jeff's intuition be enough to crack the case before more people disappear? Or will his tenacity make him the next target?
Autorenporträt
Gordon Bonnet has been writing fiction for decades. Encouraged when his story "Crazy Bird Bends His Beak" won critical acclaim in Mrs. Moore's 1st grade class at Central Elementary School in St. Albans, West Virginia, he embarked on a long love affair with the written word.His interest in the paranormal goes back almost that far. Introduced to speculative, fantasy, and science fiction by such giants in the tradition as Madeleine L'Engle, Lloyd Alexander, Isaac Asimov, C. S. Lewis, and J. R. R. Tolkien, he was captivated by those writers' abilities to take the reader to a fictional world and make it seem tangible, to breathe life and passion and personality into characters who were (sometimes) not even human. He made journeys into darker realms upon meeting the works of Edgar Allen Poe and H. P. Lovecraft during his teenage years, and those authors still influence his imagination and his writing to this day.
