El ultimo detective (The Last Detective)

Private investigator Elvis Cole has just received the most unnerving phone call of his life: the man who has kidnapped Ben, the son of Elvis's girlfriend, is looking for revenge rather than ransom. Accused of crimes he did not commit, and struggling between misguided efforts by both the LAPD and the boys estranged father, Elvis must rescue his career, his reputation, his love, and her son before a dangerous man commits a crime beyond all reckoning.

Following a tremendously successful run as a television screenwriter, Robert Crais broke into the publishing world in a big way with his Elvis Cole and Joe Pike mystery novels, proving that for a select few, Los Angeles truly can be a city of dreams.
