Taken by Robert Crais

When the daughter of a wealthy businesswoman and her boyfriend vanish in the California desert, the trail leads to something far more sinister — a ring of human traffickers preying on migrants at the border.

Private investigator Elvis Cole is called in to find them, but when Cole himself disappears during the search, it’s up to his partner, Joe Pike, to bring him back. Their hunt draws them deep into a violent underworld of smuggling, corruption, and survival, where every decision could mean life or death.

Taut, fast-paced, and explosive, Taken delivers Robert Crais’s trademark blend of relentless suspense and emotional intensity.
