Summary

Was she the billionaire’s lover? His partner in crime? Or his killer?

Former cop Emma Tapper and her lawyer boss Angela Köhler are defending shipping boss Anita Spendel, charged with murdering her billionaire husband. Anita insists Martin Spendel is still alive, but his car is soaked in his blood. Emma must clear Anita’s name by finding the missing man—dead or alive…

Meanwhile, on a luxury yacht off the coast of Ibiza, Bianca Aguilera is relaxing in the sun when a drone delivers an unexpected parcel. The contents: chilling evidence that someone close to her is dead. Horror quickly turns to realisation. She is being made to pay a heavy price for her ruthless takeover of a drugs cartel—but who is out for revenge, and can she stop them?

When Emma and Angela’s investigation leads them to Bianca, they’re unsure what to make of the street-smart single mother whose rise from nowhere seems suspiciously meteoric. Was she Martin’s lover, his partner in crime, or his killer? What is the real cargo Spendels Shipping International deals in? And can Emma find who is guilty in a case where no one seems wholly innocent?

Book 2 disappointing

I enjoyed Book 1 The Guilty One and particularly liked the narration. By comparison The Missing Man is dire. Emma’s alcoholism and issue with the senior policeman was over laboured in Book 1 and although she has miraculously sobered up, we are still subjected to the same tired issues. In Book 2 we also have Bianca who is constantly confused by lust and some cringe worthy text. So much is wrong with this book, I have no idea how and why I listened to almost the end before giving up.
