Leo i jego dziewczyna Diana zostali znalezieni martwi na torach kolejowych. W tym samym czasie zniknęła bez śladu również Maura, którą Nap uważał za miłość swojego życia. Kiedy po latach od zaginięcia Maury śledczy znajdują jej odciski palców w samochodzie należącym do podejrzanego o morderstwo, Nap rozpoczyna gorączkowe śledztwo. Zamiast odpowiedzi natrafia jednak na kolejne niewiadome. Okazuje się, że nie wiedział nic ani o kobiecie, którą kochał, ani o przyjaciołach z dzieciństwa, ani o opuszczonej bazie wojskowej, w pobliżu której dorastał, a przede wszystkim nie wiedział nic o Leo i Dianie, których śmierć jest o wiele bardziej mroczna i przerażająca, niż kiedykolwiek mógłby sobie wyobrazić. Fałszywe tożsamości, mroczne rodzinne sekrety i tajemnicze spiski czyli wszystko to, za co czytelnicy kochają mistrza thrillerów Harlana Cobena!

Najnowszy thriller Harlana Cobena, niekwestionowanego króla gatunku. 'Zaginiona' to długo wyczekiwana, dziewiąta książka o Myronie Bolitarze, agencie sportowym i detektywie, ulubionym bohaterze pisarza. Mron Bolitar nie miał kontaktu z dawną kochanką, Therese Collins, od ponad siedmiu lat. Niespodziewanie kobieta dzwoni do niego z prośbą o pomoc. Mąż Therese, Rick, o którym Myron nie miał zielonego pojęcia, miał spotkać się z żoną w Paryżu. Chciał przekazać jej jakąś ważną informację, ale przepadł bez wieści. Po chwili wahania Bolitar decyduje się lecieć do Europy. We Francji czeka na niego przykra niespodzianka. Już na lotnisku obydwoje zostają zatrzymani przez policję. Rick, pracujący jako reporter śledczy, został zamordowany, a Therese stała się główną podejrzaną... Jedna rzecz podważa tę hipotezę. Na miejscu zbrodni znaleziono ślady krwi, a badanie DNA ujawniło, że należy ona do nieżyjącej od lat córki Collinsów. Gdy tylko Myron zagłębia się w śledztwo, okazuje się, że ktoś bardzo nie chce, by prawda wyszła na jaw. Jakie tajemnice kryją się w przeszłości Ricka?
