The Detective. Matthew Reilly. 2025.

For 150 years, women have been going missing.

And all of the investigators who went in search of them = from 1877 to the present day - have disappeared, too.

Now Sam Speedman, a most unique private detective, is on the case.

Brilliant, direct and disarming, Sam is……different. He’s not your average private detective. But then again, this isn’t your average case.

But not even he will be prepared for what he will find.
