<p>I like the premise, too, and this is a darn good back-page teaser, Jude. Very nice.</p>
<p>Not sure this is relevant, but if Colt has any personal stake in this case, it should be mentioned. If the personal interest is strong enough, it'll boost the hook. </p>

<p><em>In four days, Everett Harbaugh will celebrate his twentieth birthday. <span style="font-size: 13px;">Maybe.</span></em></p>
<p></p>
<p><em>Home from college for the weekend, Everett is shocked to discover that he was conceived in a doctor’s office with sperm from an anonymous donor. Curious about his genetic heritage, he hires a former rock star turned private investigator. Nicholas Colt no sooner takes the case than Everett disappears, apparently abandoning his BMW convertible and everything inside it—cell phone, wallet, everything.</em></p>
<p></p>
<p><em>Colt soon discovers that <span style="font-size: 13px;">Everett has fourteen brothers and sixteen sisters, all from the same donor at the same sperm bank. T</span><span style="font-size: 13px;">wo of them are dead. </span><span style="font-size: 13px;">Brutally murdered. </span><span style="font-size: 13px;">Different locations, months apart. </span></em></p>
<p></p>
<p><em><span style="font-size: 13px;">As Colt dredges up the murky details of the unsolved homicides, one thing becomes crystal clear: while Everett was looking for his donor father, Everett’s donor father was looking for him. </span><span style="font-size: 13px;">Now the race is on for Colt to find Everett, and with each passing hour the situation becomes increasingly urgent. Because…</span></em></p>
<p></p>
<p><em>Both of Everett’s siblings died the day they turned twenty.</em></p>
