Cold Pursuit (Ryland & St. Clair #1) by Nancy Mehl

 

Ex-FBI profiler River Ryland still suffers from PTSD after a case went horribly wrong. Needing a fresh start, she moves to St. Louis to be near her ailing mother and opens a private investigation firm with her friend and former FBI partner, Tony St. Clair. They're soon approached by a grieving mother who wants them to find out what happened to her teenaged son, who disappeared four years ago. River knows there's almost no hope the boy is still alive, but his mother needs closure, and River and Tony need a case, no matter how cold it might be.

But as they follow the boy's trail, which gets more complicated at every turn, they find themselves in the path of a murderer determined to punish anyone who gets in his way. As River and Tony race to stop him before he kills again, an even more dangerous threat emerges, stirring up the past that haunts River and plotting an end to her future.

My Review

 

This is a fantastic read by Nancy Mehl, you will be holding your breath and page turning for answers!

We do end with some unanswered questions, and there is another book in this series, that now I can't wait for!

This book does deal with some tough subjects, but the new Watson Detective Agency, and love how they got the name. These are former FBI Profilers, and they now have this agency, and we are off on the first assignment, and what a ride this is!

Add in life's joys and sorrows, and now the missing young man, whom is presumed deceased.

There are questions of whether things would have been different if the parents had kept the young man, we will never know, and this is also a journey of mental illness, and how it is dealt with.

I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Bethany House, and was not required to give a positive review
