Three Women Disappear

by James Patterson

First published 2020

Anthony Costello lies dead in his kitchen, a knife wound ending the mob accountant's life. Three women were in the house that morning. His wife Anna, maid Serena, and personal chef Sarah all had motives to kill him. Now all three have disappeared. Detective Sean Walsh faces an impossible situation. Sarah, one of the missing suspects, is his own wife. Walsh must hunt for the women while his vengeful ex-partner runs the investigation and Anthony's uncle, the Florida don, watches his every move. Both men have power over Walsh and reasons to doubt him. Even if Walsh locates the three women, he faces a deeper problem. A dead man cannot tell his story, and the three women who remain cannot be trusted to tell theirs.
