What's Missing? - Paperback

by Mike P. Guillaume (Author)

"What's Missing?" is the inaugural book to the five volume short story series, Detective Jean-Baptiste. The American born Haitian private detective opts for murder and missing children cases, often from the wealthiest of families, that local police departments have deemed inextricable. This book introduces detective Jeffrey Jean-Baptiste, his close friends and other personalities that will be commonplace amid the series. Jeffrey construes the most bizarre of murders that police detectives simply cannot un-riddle. However, he is usually solving one of his best friend's life-altering catastrophes coupled with his cases. His best friend and deputy, Matthew Loew, is requisite to solving all his cases, which makes him indispensible, although Jeffrey's tolerance of Matthew's roller coaster life is often tested right through the series. Jeffrey's foolproof and never failing world renown technique to solving murder mysteries is to ask each case a set of questions, five in particular. Whichever question is unanswerable is the direction in which he proceeds to solve the cliffhanger. Each volume to the series demonstrates his manipulation of a particular question.
