4.5 Stars!  This was my first book by mystery writer Josh Lanyon.  I can now see why he is considered to be at the top of his field and has won numerous awards.The mystery begins immediately when a student goes missing.  And then another.  As a former FBI agent, Elliot becomes involved as a liaison between the university and the FBI agent working the case.  Interestingly enough, said FBI agent turns out to be Elliot's former lover, Tucker.Lanyon proceeds to dangle possible suspects and motives.  I was sure I knew the "whodunit," and was wrong.  I love it when an author can do that!Mystery aside, I also really enjoyed the romance between Elliot and Tucker.  They had a previous relationship that ended abruptly.  Working closely together on the missing student case gives them a second chance to see how and why they went wrong.  I love how Lanyon uses dialogue to really get inside his characters heads.I probably would have liked to see more of Elliot and Tuckers romance, but that's just me!  Very enjoyable book, which I highly recommend!!
