Holmes Is Missing: Patterson's Most-Requested Sequ

Instant New York Times Bestseller!

Best-selling author James Patterson populates his murder-mystery novels with cold-blooded killers and smart detectives (USA Today). In Holmes is Missing, PI Brendan Holmes has committed the perfect crime--he's made himself disappear.

Success has come quickly to Holmes, Marple & Poe Investigations. The New York City agency led by three detectives--Brendan Holmes, the brain, Margaret Marple, the eyes, and Auguste Poe, the muscle--with famous names and mysterious pasts is one major case away from cementing its professional reputation.

But as a series of child abductions tests the PIs' legendary skills, the cerebral Holmes's absence leaves a gaping hole in the agency roster.

Only by closing ranks and solving the mystery within can they recover all that's been lost.
