The Vanished Son

How far would you go to solve a case that could destroy you?

Inspector Rojo has no badge.

No backup.

And no business taking another case.

Forced into a year-long leave from the police, he is trying to stay out of trouble when a mysterious woman offers him a fortune to find her missing husband: a powerful businessman tied to Alicante's nightlife.

It should be simple.

Find the man.

Take the money.

Walk away.

But the deeper Rojo digs, the darker the case becomes. What begins as a private investigation soon pulls him into a maze of corruption, lies, and dangerous desires-one where everyone has something to hide, and no one wants the truth exposed.

Working outside the law, Rojo is forced to face old enemies, buried secrets, and the ghosts he has spent years trying to outrun.

Because this case is not just about a missing man.

It is about everything Rojo thought he had left behind.

And the price of the truth may be his own life.

The Vanished Son is a tense crime thriller about corruption, obsession, and a fallen inspector dragged into a case that could cost him everything.

If you love gritty police procedurals, damaged detectives, dark urban noir, missing persons cases, corruption, and relentless suspense, this first-in-series thriller will keep you turning pages late into the night.

Perfect for fans of Michael Connelly, Ian Rankin, Jo Nesbø, and European crime fiction.
