Big Lake Abduction (Big Lake, #10)

Life may seem idyllic in the small mountain town of Big Lake, but there are dark secrets here. When a small child goes missing from his dysfunctional home the clues are few, and the ones Sheriff Jim Weber and his deputies do have are confusing. The boy's playmates describe a giant with an orange head and someone else claims to have seen a spaceship. Could something that bizarre be true, or is the culprit closer to home? Is the missing boy's mother really who she says she is? And what about her live-in boyfriend, a loser with a reputation for violence?

Weber calls in a crack FBI team that specializes in child abductions and soon the case grows even more confusing, with the involvement of a corrupt federal judge in El Paso, rumors of drug dealers out to settle a score, and more. It's a tangled web of lies and deceit that must be unraveled before it's too late.
