This is the 22nd Lieutenant Luis Mendoza mystery. The cops at LAPD homicide are busy enough with the usual stupidity and crime when Mendoza's four year old twins disappear. They don't know if it's some pervert, someone Luis arrested with a grudge or a kidnapper after some of Luis's millions.
While the FBI waits for a call and checks out leads the detectives at LAPD are looking too and Mendoza is following up his hunches. They have other things to do also and are asked to look out for some crazies coming down from Sacramento as well as the regular routine that still keeps going.
One of the reasons I like this series is that you follow the detectives and their families also. Not in detail but bits and pieces of their lives are woven into the story and you see tham as real people. It's hard to give a good review of the books since they are all about the usual police routine but they are interesting.
