Fear the Worst by Linwood Barclay

Sydney is a teenager who is spending the summer with her father, Tim. Tim sells cars, has a rather strange girlfriend and an ex-wife who is living with her new boyfriend. Tim and Sydney don't always see eye-to-eye and one morning they get into an argument before they went off to their respective jobs. Sydney never comes home. In fact, the place where she was supposedly working, has never heard of her. Thus begins the mystery. What happened to Sydney and why. Tim does what he can, working with the police, Sydney's friend Patty and his ex-wife. The story was intriguing enough but I wasn't crazy about any of the characters. Still it was a good book - just not great in my humble opinion!
