Publisher Description
Even for Private Investigations, the world’s top detective agency, it’s tough to find a man who doesn’t exist . . .
Craig Gisto has promised Eliza Moss that his elite team at Private Sydney will investigate the disappearance of her father. After all, as CEO of a high-profile research company, Eric Moss shouldn’t be difficult to find.
Except it’s not just the man who’s gone missing. Despite the most advanced technology at their disposal, they find every trace of him has vanished too.
And they aren’t the only ones on the hunt. Powerful figures want Moss to stay ‘lost’, while others just as ruthlessly want him found.
Meanwhile, a routine background check becomes a frantic race to find a stolen baby and catch a brutal killer – a killer Private may well have sent straight to the victim’s door . . .

**3.5 Stars***
This instalment leads us to Sydney where we meet P.I. Craig Gisto again after visiting him previously in the book ‘Private Down Under’.
He has two cases running with his team, one is the case of a missing baby, the other a missing CEO of a research company. Both cases should be routine, but they end up to be anything but.
Why did someone attempt to break into their offices at Private and why is Craig and his team running one step behind re the case of the missing ceo?
The ceo has an adopted daughter Eliza who is wheelchair bound but very resourceful. Her disability does not define her which is how it should be. It turns out that she hardly knew her adopted father and there is no digital paper trail for him, why? Every step of the way Craig is hampered by his cousin on the force where there is no love lost, but this is a case that becomes above all of their pay grades….
The case with the missing baby turns into a terrifying chase against time to find the child. When there is a murder they are now trying to prevent another one, having possibly lead the killer to the victim’s door.
This case had all the right ingredients but somehow I felt I was going through the motions. The latter half of the book and pace made me add half a star. I would have loved to have known a bit more about Eliza as she stood out for me.
