Críticas:

"Take a tough female cop, a witty and charming retired lawyer, toss in a host of quirky Floridians, and, oh yeah, a murder that on the surface makes no sense, and you have Terry Griffin's Found. Tightly written and sprinkled with humor, this fun and fast-paced read should not be missed."--D. P. Lyle, Macavity-winning and Edgar- and Agatha-nominated author

"Expect jaw-dropping revelations to make for an unforgettable climax. VERDICT Griffin's eighth entry in his Florida mystery thriller series (after Fatal Decree) roars by in a flurry of high-octane encounters guaranteed to keep readers up all night. Heavy on dialog, like the best of buddy flicks." --Library Journal

"Witty, smart and highly entertaining. An intriguing mix of hopes and fears that combine into a pulse-pounding treat."--Steve Berry, New York Times best-selling author

"This is an entertaining mystery with an intriguing plot, a vividly rendered southwest Florida location, and believable, likable characters, reminiscent of John D. MacDonald's Travis McGee novels, with a dash of Lee Child's Jack Reacher thrown in for good measure." --Booklist

Reseña del editor:

The quiet of Longboat Key, Florida, is shattered when an old man is shot to death and his murderer is killed while fleeing the police. Strange documents in German and Arabic are found in the killer's car then an old friend of the murdered man disappears. The island's only detective, Jennifer Diane (J.D.) Duncan receives a text message with a picture taken that morning of a college friend whom she thought was dead. Matt Royal and J.D. are pursued by men who would do them harm, and Matt's best friend, Jock Algren, a shadowy operative of the U.S. government's most secretive intelligence agency comes to visit the island. As the mystery deepens, a ragtag group of devious and dangerous characters intrudes on the lives of the islanders, creating a kind of havoc unusual for a sun-splashed island full of retirees and beach bums. Matt, J.D., and Jock rush to find the answer to why one old man was killed and another disappeared, the meaning of the photo sent to J.D. of her almost surely dead college friend, and why somebody is trying to kill them.
