Malevolent: Book 1: As Rider's Life Burns

Blake Rider's wife, Lauren Fields-Rider is missing. Most of the people who know them believe that Lauren simply left Rider, but he's not convinced. He filed a missing person report with the local police in Bridgeton, Georgia 48 hours after she disappeared, and since, there has been no activity on any of her social media accounts, no outgoing calls from her phone, and no activity on any of her financial accounts for three weeks.

Rider dusts off his investigation skills and fortifies himself with booze and pills, and dives into the events of Lauren's last known day, but he quickly discovers that he's in over his head. . . .
