If you haven't read anything else from this series, you are in for a surprise, as this is NOT the average disappearance mystery. As usual, a very well written and interesting story, easy to read and with excellent characters.

He Drowned in Memory

From USA Today Bestselling Author, P.D. Workman!

Everybody has secrets.

And Zachary’s family was no different.

When his younger brother Tyrrell goes missing, PI Zachary Goldman is anxious to find him before something bad happens to him. Or is it already too late?

The last missing person case he investigated did not end well, and he can’t help worrying that whether Tyrrell’s disappearance was voluntary or not, he may be in harm’s way.

75% of missing adults are found within 24 hours. 95% are found within a week. But then there are the other 5%…

Zachary is determined that Tyrrell will not be one of those who never comes home.

The clock is already ticking.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Once again P.D.Workman has created an intense psychological mystery that impacts a wallop of thought induction. The writing is so well developed and draws you into the characters story … I couldn’t put this book down … I just had know how it turned out before I could finally go to sleep.
—Kat Taylor

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This book deals with family secrets, PTSD, panic attacks, depression. It’s real life and it can be hard to read at times, yet hard to put down. 
—Annmarie C. Kuyath  

Zachary Goldman, Private Investigator, is flawed with a capital F. Shattered by the tragedies of his own life, he will somehow still manage to pick himself up and dig just a little bit deeper than anyone else to find the vital clues.

Maybe being broken makes it easier for others who have faced tragedy to trust him. Walk with Zachary as he solves cases that will stretch his abilities to the limit.

Even with his own life in shambles, Zachary Goldman is still the one you want on the case.

Investigate this P.I. mystery now!

— an amazing and suspenseful story. It carries you away into a psychological tailspin that keeps you going in so many different directions.

— A really good piece of detective fiction with some novel and original features which keep the reader guessing until the last few pages.

— I love the way the investigation plays out…very interesting.  That is done very well. It held my interest. I very much wanted to find out the outcome…

— Very well written. [Zachary] is flawed with a capital F … In spite of his problems, he is a very sympathetic character and doggedly pursues the truth.

— [She Wore Mourning] made for a pleasant read while presenting an interesting story.

— What a great story. Fabulous plot with interesting and complex characters. I was totally involved into the wee hours. Many twists and left waiting until the end. Highly recommended

— Wow! I just finished it. In one day! I could not stop reading it! This book grabs hold of you from the start. It’s a very well written detective novel. It pulls you not the story and is very emotional. You feel for the characters. This is the first novel I have read by this author but it will not be my last. I highly recommend this book.

Author Notes may contain spoilers!

Several happenstances in previous books collided to produce the story that developed into He Drowned in Memory.

First, Zachary’s brother Tyrrell’s behaviour in Dosed to Death (Kenzie Kirsch Medical Thrillers #3).

Second, an envelope that Kenzie finds under Zachary’s apartment door in Gentle Angel (Kenzie Kirsch Medical Thrillers #4).

And third, one of the events at the end of Gentle Angel.

These three incidents, seen through Kenzie’s eyes rather that Zachary’s, seem very minor to begin with. But they are all key to Tyrrell’s disappearance at the end of Gentle Angel, which Zachary is now drawn to investigate in He Drowned in Memory.

Things are not always as they seem at first blush, and some of the things that Zachary has believed to be true are not.

“Every single one of [P.D. Workman’s] books has spoken to me … And I have found strength in the books I’ve read.”

“This is one author I certainly will be looking out for, I can’t recommend her enough.”

“I’ll read anything by P. D. Workman that I can get my hands on.”

“Every book by PD Workman that I’ve read has been a gripping one, however different the genres are, going from lighter mysteries to really dark ones… this is one of my favourite, most dependable authors.”

“P.D. Workman is an incredibly versatile writer. No matter which of her books I read I am drawn into a great story and honestly, I don’t think I’ve followed another author that could go from cozy mystery to YA to a PI series dealing with mental health issues. Really enjoy her books!”

“[P.D. Workman’s] stories are so believable and you can’t help but feel like you know these people. You find yourself crying, laughing and feeling the characters emotions. Now if an author can make you cry and feel every emotion in a story, she is one hell of an author.”

“P. D. Workman, does not shy from probing the deep psychological scars of childhood trauma, mental illness, and addiction. Also characteristic of this author, these extremely sensitive issues are explored with extensive empathy, described with incredible clarity, and portrayed with profound insight.”

“Once again P.D.Workman has created an intense psychological mystery that impacts a wallop of thought induction. The writing is so well developed and draws you into the characters story.”
