The Long Lost Tom Nixon

The sudden and strange disappearance of Joel Thomas brings together his ex-wife and best friend in a search for answers. As Mary and Jason seek out the truth, their quest consistently turns up more questions than clues. In another time, the story of a long-time group of college friends plays out across 30 years of history, revealing the highs and lows of a group that vowed to maintain their friendship until death. Is the answer to Joel's mysterious departure found in a simple note sent to Mary, or is it locked somewhere back in time? Told in alternating voices and timelines, Nixon's The Long Lost tells a story of both intrigue and suspense - along with sentimentality and introspection - as he examines the painful discoveries realized when childhood friends grow up...and grow apart.
