Author Robert Crais
Elvis Cole and Joe Pike return in RACING THE LIGHT. The 19th book in the series debuts in November 2022. Racing The Light is another grand slam for the master storyteller Robert Crais.

"If there’s a better dynamic duo than Elvis Cole and Joe Pike in all of crime fiction, I’m not aware of it.”
—David Baldacci

In RACING THE LIGHT a worried mom hires Elvis Cole to find her missing adult son. This is not a regular mom. As Elvis makes inquiries and follows up leads, he runs into porn stars, conspiracy theorists, retired black ops weapons designers, Chinese thugs, crooked city councilmen, bent real estate developers and a homeless man living in Griffith Park. Elvis' old flame Lucy and her son Ben arrive for a visit. The personal and the professional bleed into each other and all over the pages. Can Elvis keep everyone safe?

Among his accomplishments, Crais has been awarded the Ross Macdonald Literary Award, the Private Eye Writers of America's (PWA) Lifetime Achievement Award, and the Mystery Writers of America's Grand Master Award.
