Girl Missing

From the New York Times bestselling author of the Rizzoli & Isles series, a revised edition of her fast-paced romantic thriller, previously published as Peggy Sue Got Murdered. The perfect bridge between Tess Gerritsen's romance novels and her thrillers.



When a beautiful young woman's corpse is found dumped near Albion, Maine's dangerous housing projects, a mysterious drug in her system leads medical examiner Kat Novak to suspect something more sinister than a typical overdose. Searching for answers, a phone number scrawled in a matchbook leads Kat to Adam Quantrall, the enigmatic president of Cygnus Pharmaceuticals. With Adam as her only lead, Kat agrees to help him search for his missing daughter in exchange for his aid investigating the drug. At first drawn to his charm, when lab tests come back identifying the killer narcotic as a Cygnus drug, Kat then finds Adam's claims of ignorance hard to swallow. As more bodies turn up with traces of the deadly drug, Kat fears that stalking the streets of Albion is a powerful and vengeful predator. He's closer than she thinks, and she may be his next target.
