Private investigator Elvis Cole and his enigmatic partner Joe Pike are
back on the case in this brilliant thriller from #1 New York Times
bestselling author Robert Crais.
Adele Schumacher isn't a typical worried mom. When she hires Elvis to
find her missing son, a controversial podcaster named Josh Shoe, she
brings a bag filled with cash, bizarre tales of government conspiracies,
and a squad of professional bodyguards. Finding Josh should be simple,
but Elvis quickly learns he isn't alone in the hunt--a deadly team of
mysterious strangers are determined to find Josh and his adult film star
girlfriend first.
With dangerous secrets lurking behind every lead, Elvis needs his friend
Joe Pike more than ever to uncover the truth about Josh, corrupt
politicians, and the vicious business cartels rotting the heart of Los
Angeles from within. And when Elvis's estranged girlfriend Lucy Chenier
and her son, Ben, return, he learns just how much he has to lose...if he
survives.
Written with the heart, humor, and relentless suspense for which Crais
is famous, Racing the Light delivers Elvis Cole's most dangerous case
yet.
