One day, she is drawn helplessly into the parking lot of a warehouse. She knows somehow that her daughter, Holly, is being held in the building, and she has an overwhelming need to rescue her. But what Willy knows is impossible, for her daughter is dead.

Catherine needs to find someone as driven and obsessed as she is to help her-- and that person is Eve Duncan.

Lawrence Block - One Night Stands and Lost Weekends
One Night Stands and Lost Weekends is a sterling collection of short crime fiction and suspense novelettes penned between 1958 and 1962 by a budding young master and soon-to-be Grand Master - an essential slice of genre history, and more fun than a high-speed police chase following a bank job gone bad.
