Publisher's Synopsis
Book Two in the Jigsaw series following The Missing Piece. In this suspense novel PI Charlie Dodge and his enigmatic partner Wyrick on searching for a missing twelve year old girl who was kidnapped by her estranged father and is now being held by a dangerous cult.
Charlie Dodge gets a phone call from Tara Bien, a woman who's twelve year old daughter, Jordan, has been kidnapped by her ex-husband. Jud has been an absentee father most of his daughter's life. Jordan barely knows him, and Tara fears he's taken her into a cult called Fourth Dimension.
The cult is rumored to gather men with psychic abilities, with the goal of breeding a race of people who all have powers, as in psychics, mediums, clairvoyants, healers, etc. Once they are accepted into the cult they are given a young girl to marry. To get his own bride, each man must donate a young female from his own family or extended family for another member to marry. Jud took Jordan to the compound so he can marry the girl he's already picked out for himself. Tara is frantic to get Jordan back before that happens to her, and Charlie takes the case with no time to waste.
Charlie and Wyrick find men who've left the cult, then learning how the compound is laid out, where the different people stay, and what the security looks like.
The FBI has been watching members coming and going from the compound, hoping to catch one of them in an illegal act to have the excuse to get inside and see if it's true about the children. Charlie Dodge's sudden appearance might be the hook they need since he isn't bound by the same restrictions the FBI is to make a rescue legal. Before the Feds can act, they need to know for sure the kids are there. So Charlie and Wyrick make a plan, figure out how Charlie can get in undetected. Together they are able to rescue Jordan and take down the cult leader.
