October pick: The Girl in the Fog by Donato Carrisi
Sixty-two days after the disappearance, a man is arrested after a road accident in the small town of Avechot. His shirt is covered in blood. Could this have anything to do with a missing girl called Anna Lou?
Detective Vogel is on the case, but his eccentric methods start to unsettle the locals. When a media storm hits Avechot, Vogel is sure that the suspect will be flushed out. But the clues are confusing, and may lead him further away from the truth at the heart of the town.
