About the Book
Get Lost
From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller SH*T MY DAD SAYS, a fast-paced and hilarious thriller about a young woman who reluctantly teams up with her deadbeat dad to find her missing mom --- perfect for fans of Carl Hiaasen and Elmore Leonard.
When Lila Dixon gets a call that her mother has gone missing, she initially brushes it off --- Mattie’s disappearances are a part of life, like earthquakes in their dusty California hometown. But this time the prime suspect is Lila’s larger-than-life father: the one-time baseball star, local hero and fatal charmer John “Dix” Dixon.
Dix’s main accomplishment as a dad was finding new ways to disappoint his daughter, but even Lila knows he’s not behind this. And when they uncover a $250,000 deposit to Mattie’s bank account, and someone slips a threatening note under Lila’s motel door, they realize Mattie may be in real danger. Now they’re heading down a trail marked by unsavory Russian thugs, fat-cat farmers and an unseen enemy who’s always a step ahead.
With crackling banter and characters that leap off the page, GET LOST is a thrilling and emotionally layered mystery. Justin Halpern tells a story that’s by turns hilarious and poignant: about fractured families, grudges that last a lifetime and the unexpected ways we find our way back to the people we thought we’d lost for good.
