In 1960s Santa Teresa, California, a child is kidnapped and never returned ...When the case is reopened after twenty years, a man - Michael Sutton - contacts private detective Kinsey Millhone for help.

Good in good dust jacket. Outline: -It`s April 1988 a month before Kinsey Millhone`s thirty-eighth birthday and she`s alone in her office doing paperwork when a young man arrives unannounced. He has a preppy air about him and looks as if he`d be carded if he tried to buy booze but Michael Sutton is twenty-seven an unemployed college dropout. Twenty-one years earlier a four-year-old girl disappeared. A recent reference to her kidnapping has triggered a flood of memories. Sutton now believes he stumbled on her lonely burial when he was six years old. He wants Kinsey`s help in locating the child`s remains and finding the men who killed her. It`s a long shot but he`s willing to pay cash up front and Kinsey agrees to give him one day. As her investigation unfolds she discovers Michael Sutton has an uneasy relationship with the truth.
