An ex-cop turned PI is on the dangerous trail of the missing daughter of an arms dealer in this suspense thriller by the author of Bad Bones.

LOST GIRL

She was last seen in New Orleans. Her father, a rich, powerful arms dealer, believes she was abducted. For ransom. For revenge. For reasons too horrible to imagine.

LOST INNOCENCE

Claire Morgan, recent former cop turned private investigator, and her new partner begin their search at the girl's school, where a violent junkie attacks Claire with scissors, raves of "demons and devils," and then takes her own life.

LAST RITES

Sinister clues lead Claire on a twisted trail through the bars and bayous of New Orleans to a bloodstained altar in Paris. Vast, secret, and powerful, it is a world that few enter or escape. And Claire is going in-the devil be damned . . .
