About this ebook

Lucas Burke and Alix "Biade" Baker are Panama City Beach PIs specializing in missing persons cases--work they were led to by their own sister's disappearance. 

Growing up in foster care and children's homes has made them tough, savvy, and streetwise, but nothing has prepared them for this. 

 

Nora Henri and her infant daughter Emma have vanished off the face of the earth while vacationing in Panama City Beach. Months have passed, and no one has been able to find them. The only clue--the most bizarre 911 call you've ever heard.

 

Can Burke and Blade do what local, state, and federal law enforcement hasn't been able to? Can they find Nora and Emma and return them home safely, or will they die trying?

 

A complex whodunnit, an entertaining thriller, and an inspiring tale of love, The Night Of is an intelligent, funny, page-turner with heart and attitude to spare. 

Start the new mystery thriller series from acclaimed and bestselling novelist Michael Lister today and discover why Michael Connelly calls him a "master storyteller."

Author

Michael Lister

New York Times bestselling and award-winning novelist, Michael Lister, is a native Floridian best known for his literary suspense thrillers DOUBLE EXPOSURE, BURNT OFFERINGS, and SEPARATION ANXIETY, as well as his two ongoing mystery series, the prison chaplain John Jordan "Blood" series (BLOOD SACRIFICE) and the hard-boiled, 1940s noir Jimmy "Soldier" Riley Series (THE BIG HELLO). The Florida Book Review says that "Vintage Michael Lister is poetic prose, exquisitely set scenes, characters who are damaged and faulty" and Michael Koryta says, “If you like crime writing with depth, suspense, and sterling prose, you should be reading Michael Lister," while Publisher's Weekly adds, “Lister’s hard-edged prose ranks with the best of contemporary noir fiction.” Michael grew up in North Florida near the Gulf of Mexico and the Apalachicola River in a small town world famous for tupelo honey.
