Expuesta

by Mary Jane Clark

First published 2010

Eliza Blake's seven-year-old daughter vanishes without a trace. The morning news host watches as FBI agents and local police work every angle. They build psychological profiles of potential kidnappers. They examine fan mail sent to Eliza's show. They question registered sex offenders within an eighty-kilometer radius. Days pass with no breakthrough. Eliza refuses to wait passively for answers. She turns to her allies in the Sunrise Suspense Society: producer Annabelle Murphy, cameraman B.J. D'Elia, and psychiatrist Margo González. Together, they launch their own investigation into the clever criminal who threatens her child's life. The case tests Eliza's determination as a mother and her skills as a journalist. Time runs short as the kidnapper proves more cunning than anyone anticipated.
