Rebwar - The Missing Parts

by Ols Schaber

An immigrant with dreams of a better life. A shadowy government agency has him trapped in a nightmare.
Ex-Iranian police detective Rebwar hides from his past behind the wheel of his London Uber. But when an enigmatic organization threatens to expose his identity, he has no choice but to lend them his skills. And when his missing persons assignment leads only to a severed foot, he'll have to connect it to a body to prevent being deported.
When he finds his quarry's wife in bed with another man, Rebwar is forced to revive his old interrogation methods to extract a confession. But when the case is closed despite body parts still appearing, he's convinced there is more to the murder than his superiors want known. Determined to learn the truth, his private investigation uncovers a conspiracy that could see him torn to pieces.
Can Rebwar smash a sinister cabal before he becomes its next victim?
The Missing Parts is the first book in the gripping Rebwar thriller series. If you like hard-boiled detectives, high-stakes conflict, and underground crime stories, you'll love Ols Schaber's atmospheric noir.

This book was an excellent surprise! It´s full of action and describes up to date facts regarding the rise of racism in bigger communities where it´s inevitable that tensions are increasing with the lack of jobs, poverty and difficulty of people to mingle with others. Although a work of fiction it has a lot of reality in it. It´s a page turner, easy to read and a very relatable main character - Rebwar. He smokes so much in the story and this is so well described by the author that I felt like opening the windows for a breath of fresh air. I´ve already started reading the following book and it´s proving to be equally thrilling.
I received a free copy of this book from the author/Bookfunnel in exchange for an unbiased review.

Rebwar is new to the country and wants to become a private investigator. His first task is to find a missing person. He figures that following the man's wife would likely lead to the missing man. However, the first thing he finds is a foot. This investigation leads to many dead ends, with missing body parts turning up in the strangest places and under the weirdest circumstances. A great read, the story doesn't lack action or intrigue. Very good writing keeps the reader interested. I enjoyed this book and I hope the rest of the series is as good!
