The Vanishing Mistress
by E. L. Chase · High Velocity Crime series
Eddie Crane, ex-cop turned private eye, is drawn into a stolen-drive, crime-lord game where everybody is a pawn or a predator. And Rita keeps vanishing.
About the book
Rain, neon and coastal roads. Eddie is hit on the head, hunted and chasing both a man and the truth, while Rita keeps rearranging the pieces so nobody sees the full picture until it is too late.
The feel of the read
Eddie Crane’s background as an ex-cop turned private eye puts a classic PI frame around the story, and Rita’s habit of rearranging the pieces keeps the reader’s read on who’s controlling the situation shifting throughout.
Who this book is for
Good for readers who specifically want a private-investigator lead rather than a civilian or career criminal, and who enjoy a femme fatale whose motives stay genuinely unclear.
