Publisher's Synopsis
Dolan, a private investigator and former Army Ranger, takes up the case of a missing seventeen-year-old girl in the story of Hell in the Mountains.The missing girl has likely been abducted, but the cops are doing nothing. And the clock is ticking.Dolan soon finds himself racing to the secluded mountains of North Carolina, in search of the girl, and he finds himself increasingly in over his head.The trail is cold. There's a dirty cop involved. And the clues are few and far between. Hang onto your seats if you pick up this book. The pace is searing.(This story was previously published as "Stolen Daughter.")+++++++++++++++++++++++++PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM THE AUTHOR: Dear reader, I wanted to address some questions that have arisen about this book, and apologize for any confusion that may have been caused. As stated above, it was originally published as "Stolen Daughter.""Stolen Daughter" basically bombed following its launch, and this was pissing me off to no end. (Partly, because I am quite the obstinate and stubborn man. And partly, because I hate to lose. Maybe it's the Marine in me. )Regardless, I rewrote a decent amount of "Stolen Daughter" and yanked out probably twenty or thirty pages, as well as changing the title and cover. In short, I've done everything that I can to tighten the plot up even more and make the book as good as I possibly can.To me, "Hell in the Mountains" is a MUCH IMPROVED version of "Stolen Daughter," and since "Stolen Daughter" had sold so few copies, I figure there's not many who will be affected by the situation of this new launch.Again, I apologize for the confusion, and I really appreciate the continued support of so many great readers and fans out there.Sincerely yours, Stan R. Mitch
