'Millionaire Baby' Summary
The novel opens with the disappearance of Gwendolen Ocumpaugh, a young girl from a prominent New York family. Her father, Phil Ocumpaugh, offers a substantial reward for her safe return, drawing in a cast of characters with diverse agendas. Among them is a detective named John Raymond, who navigates a labyrinth of suspects, including the family's close circle and even those who seemingly have nothing to gain from the child's misfortune. As Raymond delves deeper into the investigation, he uncovers a network of secrets and illicit relationships that threaten to complicate the search for Gwendolen. He encounters a mysterious woman with a hidden past, a seemingly harmless neighbor with a suspicious interest in the case, and an unsettling undercurrent of deceit within the Ocumpaugh family itself. Amidst the escalating tension and the looming threat of tragedy, Raymond must confront his own personal demons while piecing together the puzzle of Gwendolen's disappearance. The narrative twists and turns, blurring the lines between innocence and guilt, as the detective grapples with the consequences of his choices and the relentless pressure to find the missing child before it's too late.Book Details
