But when young lawyer Evie Carney goes missing in an area of Washington DC where beautiful women don't just go missing, Virginia finds herself struggling to maintain her professionalism in light of finding out what happened to Evie. While Virginia investigates, her colleagues are facing cutbacks, her father is in the hospital, her ex-boyfriend is running the investigation, and her news anchor is declaring his love for her. But despite all that, she keeps her focus on Evie. Why did she disappear? How did she disappear? And can Virginia find her without disappearing herself?

Christina Kovac's The Cutaway is a juicy novel of suspense and intrigue, written in a lovely, compelling story. Filled with complex characters, lots of mystery, a little romance, and so many surprises, it keeps you turning pages until the very end.
