VANISHING ACT
by J.M. Hartwig
Six months after the sudden death of her husband, Detective Inspector Meredith Loxton returns to Brisbane City CIB. Her senior officers doubt she is ready to return to work, but they gently ease her into the groove by tasking her to investigate the disappearance of Simone Channing, a wealthy socialite and reality TV star.
As the investigation progresses, Meredith struggles to balance her demanding career and difficult work colleagues with being a widow, a single woman and a mother to two teenage children. Those issues present enough challenges, but stumbling into an unexpected relationship with fellow police officer Nathan Hargreaves forces Meredith to expose painful lies and secrets she wants to forget.
Meredith is confident she'll find the missing woman until the discovery of a body in Simone's house changes everything. The death looks like suicide, but Meredith isn’t convinced. The investigation has too many loose ends, unanswered questions and unexplained coincidences. Why did Simone disappear? Did she kill the man in her house? Or does she have another reason for her vanishing act?
