The Lost Boy

by Robert Barnard

Blurb

As handsome Dick Randall buys his young son Malcolm an ice-cream in a shopping precinct he looks every inch the caring father. But Malcolm's mother is sitting by the phone at home waiting for frustratingly short calls from her missing son. Inspector Purley is following leads that take him zig-zagging across the country after the abducted boy and his criminal father, following trails of petty theft and brief telephone calls.

Identities change, new lives begin and even happy reunions are not quite what they seem as this gifted crime writer questions our assumptions at every turn.
