But the person Kite wants Raker to find is himself. Dubbed The Lost Man by the media after he is found unconscious and badly beaten on a lonely South Coast beach ten months ago, Kite still has no memory of who he is, where he is from; even his name isn't his own.

As Raker digs deeper, he finds troubling details about the man he's trying to help reclaim his life.. Series: DAVID RAKER 8. Num Pages: 416 pages. BIC Classification: FA. .
