    About this ebook

    When a routine missing persons case goes sideways, Malone must once again descend into the seedy underbelly of the City of Angels in his quest to find two missing Brentwood socialites.

     

    When two young Kardashian-like sisters, Brentwood debutantes, go missing, their father calls in Malone to find them. The client, the ultra-wealthy owner of Los Angeles' largest luxury car dealership and a candidate for the L. A. city council with a trophy wife half his age, can't imagine where his daughters have gone. Malone embarks on what he expects to be a routine missing persons gig, a simple bread and butter case for a gumshoe, but things get complicated. After Malone interviews one of the missing girl's close friends, she inexplicably commits suicide. Next, there's a mysterious murder. He uncovers hints of blackmail. Once again, Malone must descend into the seedy underbelly of the City of Angeles in his quest to find the missing young women and get the answers to some very pressing questions.
