Blood Ties - Alexander Hartung

Two missing children. Only Pohl can save the third.

Two young children have been violently abducted in broad daylight, with nothing connecting them but their disappearance. Detective Nik Pohl knows there must be a missing link, but every time he gets close to the answer people show up hurt, or worse

The kidnappings must be connected. Could it be the recent property scandal that one young girl's father is embroiled in, or something even bigger? Desperate to find the children and fearing there may be more victims, Pohl throws himself into the world of Munich's grimy organised crime scene.

Drug lords, money launderers and criminals stand in the way of the truth, but Pohl knows his way around, and he's determined not to let another child disappear on his watch. Can he make the connection and identify the final target-and stop the killer-before it's too late?
