Silence by Thomas Perry

Six years ago, Jack Till helped Wendy Harper disappear because she felt her life was in danger. Now Wendy's former boyfriend and business partner Eric Fuller has been arrested for her murder. Till realizes that he must find Wendy so an innocent man doesn't go to prison. Finding Wendy takes some investigation on his part, since Till helped Wendy hide very well. Unfortunately, married killers-for-hire Paul and Sylvie Turner are also on Wendy's trail. It's a fast-paced race to get Wendy back to Los Angeles before she is murdered. Thomas Perry writes another page turner similar to the book he published last year, Nightlife. Lately, Perry hasn't been as prolific as Harlan Coben, Robert Crais, or Michael Connelly, but these two most recent works are like their stand-alone novels.
