Vanishing Girls is the first book in the Detective Josie Quinn series by best-selling American author, Lisa Regan. Three weeks into her paid suspension from the Denton PD for the use of excessive force on a member of the public, Detective Josie Quinn is frustrated with her exclusion from the case hitting the news, the abduction of pretty teen, Isabelle Coleman. The Denton PD's searches aren't turning up any clues, and they could surely use some help, but her boss warns her off, and her soon-to-be ex, Sergeant Ray Quinn refuses to share information.
Days later, she has twice come across the name "Ramona": first, on the lips of Isabelle's history teacher, Dirk Spencer soon after he has been shot; then written in blood on a wall by a catatonic teen recently found after being missing for a year. Josie is convinced that it can't be coincidence, but none of the Denton PD personnel she tells seem to find it important.
The one silver lining to her suspension cloud is that she has plenty of time to chase up leads. She trawls the internet, discovering a similar case from six years previous, she chats to ex-girlfriends, and a certain persistent TV reporter, and she manages to persuade her new fiancé, State Trooper Luke Creighton to get her copies of files. At every step, with every piece of information she uncovers, she feels there's a cover-up going on: someone is being protected, and she starts to wonder just whom she can trust.
This is an action-packed thriller with a hefty body count and some clever detective work. Regan's protagonist is smart, persistent and gutsy, and more of Josie Quinn will be eagerly anticipated.

Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children\'s paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost \"in the stacks\" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as \"1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores\", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan.
