Dear Reader…
Everything is important. Pay
attention to every detail. It’s all there in front of you.
True, you’re going to keep jumping
timelines. But there’s a reason for that. Just as in real life, everything that
happens in the past has a direct influence on what happens in the future. And
don’t worry...that timeline that started 30 years in the past? Stick with
it...it will catch up to the present-day timeline...eventually.
You’ve just read the first
chapter, and now you’re confused. Why would someone supposedly so uninteresting
and so unremarkable suddenly disappear? Well, turn the page, and we’ll begin to
find out...together.
We start by following five college
friends, who find their way together by chance...and eventually find their way
apart. Thirty years is a long time. And life moves on, right? You can’t expect
things to stay the same forever, can you? But is the story of Jason, Joel, Mary
and Ziggy relevant to Joel’s modern-day disappearance?
If you pay attention, you’ll see.
That note sent to Mary? It’ll all make sense. The emails and text messages from
a man who’s either dead, held captive or in hiding? Well, those will make sense
too. In fact, it all makes sense, when you think about it. There was really
only one way this could turn out...
Love,
Tom Nixon

BLURB:
The sudden and
strange disappearance of Joel Thomas brings together his ex-wife and best
friend in a search for answers. As Mary and Jason seek out the truth, their
quest consistently turns up more questions than clues. In another time, the
story of a long-time group of college friends plays out across 30 years of
history, revealing the highs and lows of a group that vowed to maintain their
friendship until death. Is the answer to Joel’s mysterious departure found in a
simple note sent to Mary, or is it locked somewhere back in time? Told in
alternating voices and timelines, Nixon’s The Long Lost tells a story of both
intrigue and suspense — along with sentimentality and introspection — as he
examines the painful discoveries realized when childhood friends grow up...and
grow apart.
