Sometimes a man who goes missing should stay missing.... When a hotshot literary agent by the name of Suzanne Bonchance lures Richard Moonlight into searching for her missing star client-the boozing, womanizing Roger Walls-the private detective finds himself waist-deep in a whole lot of trouble. But when a sexy, young MFA in Writing student who claims to know Walls comes to his rescue, Moonlight not only becomes smitten with her charm, he also finds himself falling in love with a girl he barely knows. As the trail for Walls narrows, and the truths about everyone who has ever been involved with Roger Walls are revealed, Moonlight finds himself wanting to run away as fast as his legs will take him. One thing he can't outrun, however, are bullets.
