    About this ebook

    When an anonymous 9-1-1 caller claims responsibility for a missing college student, Detective Nickie Savage is hot on the case.

    But she needs the help of Duncan Reed, an artist with a photographic memory, who's also determined to cut through her aversion to commitment.

    As suspects pile up and time counts down, Nickie faces an even greater challenge: losing the young woman to the same captivity Nickie endured as a child.

      Chapter 1

      Nick, you're gonna want to come listen to this.

      Detective Nickie Savage looked up from her monitor in time to see her Captain's head ducking out the door. That was code for, 'get your butt in my office.' Shrugging, she took off her reading glasses and pushed away from her splintered desk.

      It was nearly noon. Time had gotten away from her. Stretching, she looked at the empty soda bottles and crumpled papers that were multiplying in her tiny office. She'd missed her trash can. A few dozen times. Too bad growing up a Maryland Monticello didn't allow for ball sports.

      She barely made it into the commons area when her feet stopped before the rest of her. A copy of US Inquiring Minds sat at the corner of one of the many metal desks bunched in twos. The tabloid lay next to a donut grease-stained napkin and an ancient mug of coffee. Squinting, she noticed the small photo in the corner. Duncan Reed. The caption labeled him The Taste of L.A. She rolled her eyes. The cover picture was a painting he'd drawn of pop star Johnny Lyons and his new bride. Duncan did good work.

      Her captain had the plush office. Made sense. Large windows lined the front. The blinds on each had been raised, so the impromptu meeting must not be too bad. His door was ajar, and he was expecting her. She knocked anyway before walking in. Shutting the door behind her, she opened with, Sir?

      Sit down, and don't call me that.

      Trying not to smile, she prodded, What's that?

      Captain Dave Nolan had been her partner, her mentor and, in a way, the father figure she'd never had. She could still give him crap about his captain status.

      He answered with a jeer. At six-foot-four he might look menacing, but she knew better.

      Since he wasn't going to give her the satisfaction of an answer, she asked, What've we got?

      Listen. Dave sat at his enormous desk. His chair was big enough to fit him—that said something—and tall enough to rise above his head.

      She slid into a padded guest chair and set one
