Davan Caplan: The Strange Incident of Edgar Cotton Book 2 Edgar Escapes (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798235732438)

Edgar Cotton is no longer just missing.

He is running.

After escaping from the train in Bend, Oregon, controversial reality television star Edgar Cotton turns a missing person investigation into a full-blown chase. Davan Caplan, William Shongo, and Koki Washio leave Car 12 to help search for him, but Edgar always seems one step ahead.

From a crowded café to a restroom window, from snowy streets to the Old Flame Bar, Edgar uses every trick he learned from his reality television days to avoid capture. With the police closing in, he finds help from loyal fans, old contacts, and people who still see him as a celebrity worth protecting.

But Edgar's escape is not just about avoiding the law.

Koki Washio finally reveals the truth: Edgar owes gambling money to a dangerous boss in Tokyo, Japan. Now Lynda Buffay must face the possibility that the man she loved kept an entire criminal problem hidden from her. Eric Peters believes Edgar's guilt is obvious, Monika Berger still wants to believe in him, and Davan tries to keep everyone calm as the crisis spreads beyond the train.

When Edgar takes off in a crop duster and heads toward Sisters, Oregon, the chase becomes even stranger. Sheriff Dieter Vogel joins the search, Officer Joan Sevens tries to keep control in Bend, and another reality television figure may be waiting to help Edgar disappear again.

A fast-paced continuation of the train mystery, Edgar Escapes follows Davan Caplan and the passengers of Car 12 as one missing celebrity turns into a larger scandal of debt, fame, loyalty, and desperate choices.
