A new thriller from three-time Shamus Award Nominee and Two-Time Derringer Award Winner Richard Helms!

Imagine returning home from a business trip to find that your agoraphobic wife has disappeared, along with every trace of evidence that you had been married, or that she had even existed. David Proctor, believing that his wife Barbara has been abducted, frantically seeks help from the police, but they reject his claims, suspecting that he is trying to run some kind of con. Desperate for help, Proctor turns to Savannah private eye Hollis Dayton.

Suspecting that Barbara Proctor might have been conning David all along, she launches her investigation, and uncovers a stunning web of false identies, deceit, fraud, and murder. Worse, the deeper she delves into the disappearance of David Proctor's wife, the more convinced she becomes that Barbara might have vanished because of her involvement in a horrifying terrorist plot which has the potential to make the attacks of 9/11 pale in comparison.

With just hours left before a disaster of unimaginable proportions, Hollis and David dash across country in a last-ditch effort to avert The Daedalus Deception!
