Special Agent Elsa
Myers is in demand in the FBI’s Child Abduction Rapid Deployment Team. But she
is also needed by her family as her father is on his death bed. But aside from
her father and sister, work is all she has. So when a seventeen-year-old girl
doesn’t come home from work at a New York City coffee shop, Special Agent Myers
leaves her father’s bedside to consult—just a consult, she’ll be back that
evening--with NYPD Det. Lex Cole. But when the case turns personal, Elsa knows
she’ll see it through.
As Elsa investigates the missing girl and
deals with her father’s terminal illness, her past comes back to haunt her. Her
father begs her to let go, to allow his death, the sale of her childhood home,
to free her. But it isn’t always easy, especially when Det. Cole is there,
trying to be her new best friend when what she wants is a partner that minds
his own business.
A Map Of The Dark is a police procedural
that uniquely has the FBI working in cooperation with local law enforcement, a
welcome change. Also refreshing is the altruistic work of law enforcement. They
want to rescue the missing victim; no one-upping, no competition, no
corruption. It is an efficiently written
combination of plot and character that will hold the interest of crime fiction
fans.

The higher the depth, the more reductions are required. Deep drawing may be achieved with fewer reductions by heating the workpiece, for instance in sink manufacture. The gauge thicknesses shown in column 2 (U.S. standard sheet and plate iron and metal decimal inch ) appear somewhat arbitrary. The development of thicknesses is obvious in column three (U.S. standard for sheet and plate iron and metal 64ths inch ). The thicknesses range first by 1/32" in higher thicknesses and then step down to down to} increments of Sweaters 1/64", then 1/128", with the ultimate increments at decimal fractions of 1/64". Offered sheets are used designed and developed underneath the supervision of our professional professionals utilizing modern machines and instruments, which helps in lowering price of|the value of} manufacturing.
