Discoveries (The Sad Girl, #2)

Welcome to their version of normal.

Six months ago, Danny Cumberland rescued his daughter and her friends from a trafficking nightmare. They came home from Argentina and started the healing process.

Now Danielle wants to find her missing mother.

Nikolai Egger, the leader of the kidnappers who snatched Danielle so long ago, disappears during a prison transfer. Is that his body in the burning van?

A dead man arrives in San Diego on a bus, carrying nothing but the Cumberland's new address.

Danny and his friends find evidence that the trafficking rings' tentacles are entwined more deeply than anyone thought possible, even reaching into federal law enforcement. They're running out of people they can trust, too.

After a traumatic shooting literally in Danny's face, he must set off on another harrowing trip, scrambling to deliver the evidence that will crack the ring wide open. But can they trust the person they're meeting?

Auteur

When you get right down to it, Bob Mueller writes about emotions. He finds them in his own experiences as a divorced father and family member of a sex abuse survivor, and from the people he meets. He puts himself in someone else's shoes, and teases out their feelings. Blending that with bits and pieces of history and life experience, he crafts a story that might have been inspired by a song, or a news article. But it's about emotions in the end.

Born in north Texas and raised in southeastern Ohio, Bob is a member of International Thriller Writers, Tulsa NightWriters and Oklahoma Writer's Federation, a father of eight, and a pastor's husband. When he's not writing, he enjoys reading (thrillers, historical fiction and non-fiction, and police procedurals), genealogy, and shooting. For more information, visit http://www.bobmuellerwriter.com.
