The Line Between Here and Gone

May 21, 2012
In bestseller Kane’s suspenseful second Forensic Instincts novel (after 2011’s The Girl Who Disappeared Twice), Manhattan photojournalist Amanda Gleason hires Forensic Instincts to find her real estate developer boyfriend, Paul Everett, who disappeared on Long Island eight months earlier and is presumed dead. Having recently received a grainy cellphone photo that appears to show Paul standing on a Washington, D.C., street corner, Amanda believes he’s alive—and is her only hope for a donor match for their newborn son, who suffers from severe combined immunodeficiency and might die without a stem cell transplant. When the Forensic Instincts team—which includes founder Casey Woods, former Navy SEAL Marc Devereaux, and techno genius Ryan McKay—begins to investigate, they’re unable to discover much about Paul’s past, while law enforcement agencies stonewall their efforts to gain information at every turn. Engaging characters help drive the twisty plot, which builds to a stunning conclusion. Agents: Andrea Cirillo and Christina Hogrebe, Jane Rotrosen Agency.
