Description

A missing girl. A small town full of secrets. And a case that’s anything but simple.
Private Investigator Claude Oldham figures it’ll be quick. Teenager Maddy Watson has vanished, but Oasis is a quiet town, and Claude knows all the usual hiding spots. She’s handled runaways before. But Maddy is different—and she’s not hiding. When the case turns violent, Claude ends up concussed and in the ER. That’s when she calls in backup: her friends and fellow members of the Oasis Cold Case Team—retired Detective Chief Inspector Jackie Preston and forensic pathologist Dr. Fannie May Washington. Claude may still run her own agency, but when things get serious, she knows who to trust. The deeper they dig, the murkier it gets: a cruel stepmother, a father who doesn’t seem to care, a street-smart kid who knows more than he’s saying, and a pair of thugs ready to silence anyone asking questions. The Oasis Cold Case Team has faced down killers before—but this time, the clock is ticking, and the victim may not have time to be found. Comparable works include Veronica Mars
