<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <b>The thing i like to read the most are mysteries/thrillers and this is one of THE BEST I HAVE EVER READ. </b>--Samantha Irby, <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of<i> We Are Never Meeting in Real Life</i><br><b><b>I'm always looking for a good thriller, and this just was perfect.</b></b>--Nancy Pearl, NPR's <i>Morning Edition</i><br><b>"Opening this book is like arming a bomb--the suspense is relentless and the payoff is spectacular. Lead character Alice Vega is sensational--I want to see lots more of her." </b>--Lee Child<br><b>Sensational.</b> --<i>Wall Street Journal</i> <p/> As addictive, cinematic, and binge-worthy a narrative as <i>The Wire </i>and <i>The Killing</i>, <i>Two Girls Down </i>introduces Louisa Luna as a thriller writer of immense talent and verve. <br> When two young sisters disappear from a strip mall parking lot in a small Pennsylvania town, their devastated family hires Alice Vega, an enigmatic bounty hunter from California, to do what the authorities cannot. Immediately shut out by a local police department already stretched thin by budget cuts and the growing OxyContin and meth epidemics, Vega enlists the help of a disgraced former cop, Max Caplan, to cut through the local politics. <br> Vega and Cap will go to extraordinary lengths to untangle a complex web of lies, false leads, and dangerous relationships to locate the girls before time runs out. <i>Two Girls Down</i> is intense, suspenseful, and boldly atmospheric from the first line to its riveting conclusion. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> Sensational...One of the book's great pleasures is seeing Caplan and Vega's initially testy entanglement develop into a true partnership. But there are many other aspects in Ms. Luna's story to savor as well: a host of sharply sketched characters, from spaced-out dopers to distraught parents and grandparents; action sequences startling in their sudden violence; and quick psychological revelations that pierce the heart.<br><i><b>--Wall Street Journal<br></b></i><br>"Opening this book is like arming a bomb--the suspense is relentless and the payoff is spectacular.

Alice Vega and Max Caplan are characters I'd follow anywhere, and Louisa Luna is a writer to watch. Highly recommended.<br>--<b>Michael Koryta, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Those Who Wish Me Dead <p/></i></b>"This is such a terrific read. High stakes, relationship-driven, perfectly paced. <i>Two Girls Down</i> has something else worth noting: three dimensional female characters. Alice Vega could give Jack Reacher a run for his money. Maybe Louisa Luna should write all the thrillers."<br><b>--Chelsea Cain, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Heartsick</i></b> <p/>"Louisa Luna is an incredibly talented writer with a bewitching gift for storytelling, and <i>Two Girls Down</i> fairly crackles with energy and suspense from the first page to the last.

This one, I just could not put down."<br><b>--Donald Ray Pollock, author of <i>The Devil All the Time</i> & <i>The Heavenly Table</i></b> <p/>To the pantheon of unforgettable noir detectives, add Louisa Luna's bounty hunter Alice Vega and her partner, PI Max Caplan, one of the best and most original duos to grace crime fiction in many years. <i>Two Girls Down </i>is a breathlessly gripping journey into the dark heart of America: I couldn't put it down.<br><b>--Elizabeth Hand, author of <i>Generation Loss </i>and <i>Hard Light</i></b> <p/>"Louisa Luna has written a knockout, read-it-in-one-sitting novel with <i>Two Girls Down. </i>Gripping, emotional, and tautly written, with a wonderful cast of memorable characters."<br><b>--Jeff Abbott, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>Adrenaline</i></b> <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> Louisa Luna is the author of the novels <i>Brave New Girl</i>, <i>Crooked</i>, and <i>Serious As A Heart Attack</i>.
