Private Detective

LOST LITTLE GIRL

Gregory Stout

Jackson Gamble Mysteries #1

Nashville PI Jackson Gamble takes on a case that seems simple enough. All he has to do is find and return home a fourteen-year-old girl who has disappeared from home. Gamble’s experience tells him the girl is just another runaway, but her mother insists she has been kidnapped. The search for Gabrielle sets Gamble on a path that leads him through the city’s underbelly of sex for hire, pornography, snake-handling religious fundamentalists, and perhaps a serial killer of teenaged girls. With the help of an attractive woman with a heartbreaking past of her own, he reaches the conclusion of his investigation, with results that are both tragic and unforgettable, where the smallest mistake could spell the end of both his career and his life.

“With Lost Little Girl, get ready to meet your newest favorite detective, Jackson Gamble. He’s a PI with an ironic view of the world, an equal ease in strip clubs and executive offices, and an openness to falling in love. Greg Stout makes Gamble’s Nashville, Tennessee as gritty and vivid—a character in its own right—as Lew Archer’s Los Angeles. Can’t wait for the sequel!”
