Things People Keep That Go Missing

A Paul Savage – Private Eye Novel

Private investigator Paul Savage has made a career out of finding things people lose, missing objects, missing time, missing pieces of themselves. Most cases begin small. A missing cookbook. A storage unit key. A cigar box forgotten in the corner of a room.

But ordinary things rarely stay ordinary for long.

When a handwritten cookbook vanishes after a family funeral, Paul uncovers decades of hidden memories tucked between stained recipe pages. What begins as a simple search slowly reveals old betrayals, buried truths, and the quiet damage caused by secrets kept too long.

Along the way, Paul follows trails through storage lockers filled with regret, letters hidden inside forgotten boxes, and families struggling to hold together the stories they built their lives around.

With Rufus never far from his side and the city moving through rain-soaked streets outside his office window, Paul learns once again that people rarely hide what matters most in safes or vaults.

They hide it in ordinary things.

Things People Keep That Go Missing is a quiet, atmospheric private eye novel about memory, forgiveness, loss, and the pieces of our lives we carry long after we should have let them go.
