People go missing for all sorts of reasons. When Scott Hunter is drawn into investigating the unexplained disappearance of Andrew Wood, a man he barely knew, he finds questions everywhere he turns. Is Andrew alive? Was he taken or did he simply leave? Why did he quit his job and leave his home in such a hurry, leaving many of his belongings behind? Why has he failed to make contact with anyone in the three months since he vanished? And why is another man searching his house, armed with a gun? As Scott gradually discovers the trail which brings him closer to the truth, he unearths a web of deceit that is bigger than he first imagined. And after a brutal murder causes shockwaves across the city, the police become very interested in Scott, so much so that he realises if he fails to find Andrew, the life he knows may be taken from him. But he's not the only one searching for Andrew. Not by a long way....
