Paperback. When missing persons investigator David Raker is approached by Richard Kite, he believes he's meeting another desperate relative searching for a loved one. 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. And with no one contacting the police since his discovery, it seems that no one is looking for him either. But is that really the case? 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. .
