By James Patterson
Holmes Is Missing – It is their toughest case yet. And their best detective is missing.
Looking into the disappearance of six children
In Holmes is Missing, PI Brendan Holmes has committed the perfect crime – he’s made himself disappear.
Success has come quickly to Holmes, Marple & Poe Investigations. The New York City agency led by three detectives – Brendan Holmes, “the brain,” Margaret Marple, “the eyes,” and Auguste Poe, the “muscle” – with famous names and mysterious pasts is one major case away from cementing its professional reputation.
But as a series of child abductions tests the PIs’ legendary skills, the cerebral Holmes’s absence leaves a gaping hole in the agency roster.
Only by closing ranks and solving the mystery within can they recover all that’s been lost..
Best-selling author James Patterson populates his murder-mystery novels with cold-blooded killers and smart detectives.
