Lost

Michael Robotham’s Suspect, hailed as “a lightning-paced debut” by Entertainment Weekly, was an international best- seller that raised the bar for thrillers. Now two characters from that acclaimed novel—Detective Vincent Ruiz and psychologist Joe O’Loughlin—return for the electrifying Lost.

When Detective Ruiz is pulled from the Thames, he has a bullet in his leg, a photograph of a missing (and presumed dead) girl in his pocket, and absolutely no memory of what happened. Nearby is a bloody boat, perhaps evidence of further damage from the night Ruiz can’t remember. When his own colleagues start hounding Ruiz for answers—some even accusing him of faking amnesia—the battered and beleaguered detective turns to O’Loughlin to help recover his memories. And as the past comes back in fragments, the astonishing truth begins to crystallize.

This riveting follow-up to Suspect confirms Robotham as a brilliant new talent.
