Rekindled — Rex Kusler

Alice James is back in Detroit helping her mother get situated in a nursing home. This leaves Jim Snow alone to investigate their first missing person case involving a wedding photographer who told everyone he was leaving on a photo expedition to supplement the book he's been working on. Snow's not sure how to proceed with this case so he handles it like the usual homicide investigation he has experience with-since the probability of a missing person turning up dead is much more likely than anyone else walking the mean streets of Las Vegas. Alice finally returns just in time to help out with the case and figure out Snow, as usual, hasn't been paying attention to details-except when those details have to do with a woman's body parts.
