The Detective cover

For 150 years, women have been going missing.
And all of the investigators who went in search of them have disappeared, too.


Now Sam Speedman, a most unique private detective, is on the case. Brilliant, direct and disarming, Sam is ... not your average detective. But then again, this isn't your average case. For not even Sam is prepared for the long-buried secrets he will find.

Set in the most isolated corners of the American South, tapping into the dark currents that simmer beneath the surface of the modern United States, Matthew Reilly brings you a detective thriller like no other.
