As the story begins, a lonely woman vanishes while out on her morning
run. Then a 22-year-old girl never returns from a walk. An old man
disappears too. When fresh-faced policewoman Freya Graffham is assigned
to the case, she runs the risk of getting too invested--too involved--in
the action. Alongside the enigmatic detective Chief Inspector Simon
Serrallier, she must unravel the mystery before events turn too
gruesome. Written with intelligence, compassion, and a knowing eye--in
the tradition of the fabulous mysteries of Ruth Rendell and P.D.
James--The Various Haunts of Men is an enthralling journey into the
heart of a wonderfully developed town, and into the very mind of a
killer.
