The Last Detective

Summary

Back in 1999, Robert Crais set out to take his readers fully into the world of one of his two heroes: Joe Pike. For the first time, we really saw what made his creation tick, away from his partnership with Elvis Cole. That book - LA Requiem - has since been hailed as Crais' finest novel. Now, with The Last Detective, we see the other half of this best-selling duo. Elvis Cole has to face up to a crime that takes place far too near home. His girlfriend's only child has been kidnapped, and it seems that something from his own past has come back to haunt him.
