A supernatural thriller set in the Arizona/Mexico border region.
Lulu Lavender has been kidnapped. Her family has been brutally murdered. With the sheriff's office consumed by a high-profile case of a missing white teenager from a prominent family, it falls to Patrol Lieutenant Buck Shelton to investigate Lulu's abduction.
The trail leads Buck to the Arizona-Mexico border and a dark world of bizarre supernatural forces, desperate power seekers, vigilantes and drug dealers, and ultimately to a bloody showdown between good and evil--with an innocent girl caught in the cross fire...
The Douglas, AZ Daily Dispatch said Missing White Girl "offers a gripping supernatural thriller while weaving an insightful commentary about race and class on the U.S./Mexico border." The Tucson Weekly said "Missing White Girl is frequently enthralling. Mariotte hits upon some fascinating topics, including those of immigration and the Border Patrol, Mexican and American patriotism, and the terrible things people will do when they feel maligned and desperate. He throws in just enough grit and gore to appease action junkies, but doesn't use it as an easy selling point to the Saw crowd.
"But his true masterpiece is Buck Shelton. In his hero, he's crafted one of the finest new sleuths in fiction."
WEIRD RHODY is a short story collection featuring five strange tales all set in Rhode Island and written by five Rhode Island authors. The anthology is a tribute to H.P. Lovecraft, the Ocean State's famed author of pulp horror.
