A terrified secretary finds a severed finger in an elevator. A week later, in another building, a hand is found – from a different victim. What will be next? An arm or a leg? Someone's head?

As Detective John Maiden confronts the mounting horror of the killings, he knows more lives are at stake, and not just those of the killer's next targets. The kidnapping of a young girl has raised the stakes even higher as her captor wants to get himself noticed – and the front pages of the newspapers are giving him nasty ideas.

An international bestseller, Missing Pieces is a chilling story of murder, revenge and vicious abduction.
