Detective Cooper Devereaux is tracking a missing 7 year old boy, and has been partnered with a cop from vice, Jan Loflin. He uncovers many secrets while trying to find the missing boy, including a secret that will change his life. The ending was creepy!!!

A trifling, badly-plotted, unconvincing waste of time.

A seven year old child has been kidnapped and Det. Cooper Devereaux, just returned from one of his many suspensions, is given the case. Though Devereaux doesn’t often play well with others, and isn’t a stickler for the rules he is a great detective and his boss – one of his only supporters – knows if anyone can find this child he can.
I really liked Devereaux even before his back story was slowly revealed. And by the end of the book he was truly a hero – flawed and vulnerable but full of the right stuff. As Devereaux dug farther and farther into things his intuition told him were connected to the kidnapping he discovered many truths about himself and others in his life -truths about mass murderers, bloodlines, mental illness and obsession. This twisty, totally unpredictable page turner is the beginning, I hope, of a long line of Det. Cooper Devereaux stories.

A little confusing in the beginning - lots of short chapters I shouldn't be reading late at night. But a good story and good ending.
Oh, and this author is the younger brother of Lee Child of Reacher fame. If you like Reacher, give this a try.
