EDGAR AWARD WINNER • In this powerful new thriller, Alice Vega and Max Caplan return, uncovering a network of white supremacists in their search for a long-lost counter-culture hero.
"Alice Vega is sensational—I want to see lots more of her." —Lee Child, #1 New York Times best-selling author

Alice Vega has made a career of finding the missing and vulnerable against a ticking clock, but she's never had a case like that of Zeb Williams, missing for thirty years. It was 1984, and the big Cal-Stanford football game was tied with seconds left on the clock. Zeb Williams grabbed the ball and ran the wrong way, through the marching band, off the field, and out of the stadium. He disappeared into legend, replete with Elvis-like sightings and a cult following.
 
Zeb's cold trail leads Vega to southern Oregon, where she discovers an anxious community living under siege by a local hate group called the Liberty Boys. As Vega starts digging into the past, the mystery around Zeb's disappearance grows deeper, and the reach of the Liberty Boys grows more disturbing. Everyone has something to hide, and no one can cut to the truth like Alice Vega. But this time, her partner Max Caplan has his own problems at home, and the trouble Vega finds might be too much for her to handle.
 
Louisa Luna understands suspense, tension, and character like only the best writers in crime fiction do—and she may well write the best interrogations in the genre. Hideout is pure adrenaline and Luna's most intimate thriller yet, a classic cold case wrapped in a timely confrontation with a terrifyingly real network of white supremacists and homegrown terrorists.

      In Luna’s exhilarating third Alice Vega mystery (after 2020’s The Janes), wealthy Anton Fohl asks the Sacramento Valley private eye to find Zeb Williams, a man Fohl’s wife dated during college who disappeared in 1984 at the end of the Big Game between Cal and Stanford. With seconds left in the fourth quarter and the score tied, Cal kicker Zeb was supposed to attempt a field goal, but instead he picked up the football and ran toward the wrong goal and out of the stadium, heading for parts unknown. Vega travels to Ilona, Ore., the last place Fohl says Zeb was seen. In Ilona, she meets schoolteacher Cara Simms, a target of harassment and vandalism, who confirms that Zeb lived there for a short while a few years earlier. When the town’s “ethically challenged sheriff” proves less than interested in investigating the crimes against Cara, Vega noses around and unearths a local branch of a white nationalist network, with which Zeb was apparently involved. Vega’s PI partner, Max Caplan, lends support, but it is the no-nonsense Vega who carries the day. Readers will want to see a lot more of this kick-butt hero. Agent: Mark Falkin, Falkin Literary.
