Shadow Men

Nearly eighty years ago a father and his two sons mysteriously disappeared and were never heard from or seen again, while they were working to build the first road through the everglades.  A descendant of these men, Mark Mayes, discovers the letters the men had written to their family.  The letters make him desperate to find out what happened to the grandfather and uncles he never met.  He starts asking questions but is quickly stonewalled, with nowhere else to go, the young man turns to Ex-Philadelphia police officer turned private investigator, Matt Freeman, for help.  Matt knows it’s a long shot that he’ll be able to find out what happened to the missing men, but decides to give it a shot any way. 

He quickly learns that there are a lot of people who want to keep the past in the past, even if it takes murderer.  What he discovers about the men’s disappearance is so horrifying and evil that it’s hard to believe.  Shadow Men by Jonathan King is a captivating story that I would recommend to anyone who loves to read a good mystery.
