The Lost Women

The Lost Women, the first volume in Tim Weaver’s new series of missing person thrillers, revolves around investigator David Raker. Eighteen years ago, three women disappeared while filming a documentary on the Cornish coast, a case that still haunts Raker from his days as a journalist. Now working as a private detective, he faces an equally baffling situation: a man named Preston Stewart vanishes after facial surgery, and when the bandages come off, his wife finds a stranger in his bed.

Raker and his ally, ex-detective Colm Healy, soon connect the two mysteries. With only 48 hours to uncover the truth, they must race to solve both cases before devastating consequences hit those they love. This psychological suspense novel delivers a riveting blend of cold case intrigue and high-stakes investigation.
