Sometimes to defeat the monster, you have to become the monster… In the summer of 1985 an eight-year-old boy vanishes near his home. Five years later and eighty miles away, a nine-year-old girl reappears after going missing for six months. She doesn’t speak at first. When she does no one believes where she says she’s been, what she’s done, who she’s seen. But three decades later and the now thirty-nine-year-old ordained pastor may be private investigator Cass Fletcher’s only hope; a last chance to find the missing boy before his mother loses her battle with a terminal illness. The two cases couldn’t be more different – the children were from different districts, different schools, different ages and social status, one child returned, the other didn’t. Only their faith offers the faintest of connections. But it’s enough for Fletcher. She knows that for her and her partner to do in months what law enforcement haven’t been able to do in thirty-five years they’re going to have to look in the places no one else has. Except while time might be their greatest enemy, it isn’t their only one. Because the closer Fletcher gets to the ghosts of the past, the clearer the consequences of disturbing them become. Devastating for some. For others deadly. Missing Piece sees the return of the PIs in the much-anticipated fourth book in the Hoskins & Fletcher crime series "Grabbed me from the first chapter and kept me reading late into the night." "Will remain with you even after you've read the last page." "Best one yet." "Another great read... They never disappoint." "A superb series that only gets better with each book."

"Novelistic, perfectly plotted and quite possibly the best pop-star autobiography yet written." - The Wall Street Journal Jimmy Webb’s words have been sung to his music by a rich and deep roster of pop artists, including Glen Campbell, Art Garfunkel, Frank Sinatra, Donna Summer and Linda Ronstadt. He’s the only artist ever to win Grammy Awards for music, lyrics, and orchestration, and his chart-topping career has, so far, lasted fifty years, most recently with a Kanye West rap hit and a new classical nocturne. Now, in his first memoir, Webb delivers a snapshot of his life from 1955 to 1970, from simple and sere Oklahoma to fast and fantastical Los Angeles, from the crucible of his family to the top of his longed-for profession. Webb was a preacher’s son whose father climbed off a tractor to receive his epiphany, and Jimmy, barely out of his teen age years, sank down into the driver’s seat of a Cobra to speed to Las Vegas to meet with Elvis. Classics such as “Up, Up and Away”, “By the Time I Get to Phoenix”, “Wichita Lineman”, “Galveston”, “The Worst that Could Happen”, “All I Know”, and “MacArthur Park” were all recorded by some of the most important voices in pop before Webb’s twenty-fifth birthday: he thought it was easy. The sixties were a supernova, and Webb was at their center, whipsawed from the proverbial humble beginnings into a moneyed and manic international world of beautiful women, drugs, cars and planes. That stew almost took him down—but Webb survived, his passion for music and work among his lifelines. The Cake and The Rain is a surprising and unusual book: Webb’s talent as a writer and storyteller is here on every page. His book is rich with a sense of time and place, and with the voices of characters, vanished and living, famous and not, but all intimately involved with him in his youth, when life seemed nothing more than a party and Webb the eternal guest of honor.
