Connect the dots and you will find her.

I would imagine that if Stephen King or Dean Koontz could think back to the start of their writing careers and pick a story that was truly different and very entertaining, they would like to have written "Who Is Shayla Hacker". However, Evan Kilgore beat them to the publishing world. Greg Klein is a loner. He receives a call from a young woman, pleading for help. Jackie Savage is a high school student whose brother fails to pick her up at school so she decides to find out what became of him. Terry Young is conflicted about his upcoming marriage. He goes to his attic and takes a photo from an old box. He knows the girl in the photo will haunt him for the rest of his life. Det. Joe Malloy is retiring. His replacement asks him to tell about the one case that still bothers him. He has her photo but who is she? Debbie Wendell finds a jewelry box in the ventilation duct at the airport. She knows it's valuable but whose is it? Evan Kilgore winds the story of these and other characters in a fine web as they search for Shayla Hacker. Characters appear and disappear. A person sits next to Debbin on a plane and then vanishes. Greg gets another call from the young woman and authorities arrive and question him as to how he knows her and demanding he leave her alone. The story is addictive as is the hunt for Shayla Hacker. It is hard to put the novel down. Kilgore has written it as if he were a conductor in a masterpiece of writing. Don't miss this one!
