About the book:

Twenty-seven years after the deaths of Detective Abby Hart’s parents, she’s desperate to find the proof that will put the mastermind–the governor’s wife–behind bars. When she joins a newly formed task force and teams up with PI Luke Murphy, Abby is sent to San Luis Obispo to work the cold case of a murdered college student. Realizing their investigation will bring them near the town where Alyssa Rollins grew up, Abby decides to do a little digging of her own into the Triple Seven fire.

Luke is eager to help Abby close the books on a case they both have personal stakes in. But as she uncovers long-held secrets, Abby stumbles into an explosive situation, and Luke fears that her obsession may prove deadly.

My Review:

This fascinating cold case file story caught my attention when I saw the cover. However, it only merited three stars instead of four stars as I felt like it had too many cases. It took me awhile to keep them all straight. When I got to about the middle, suddenly, I was really into it and I wanted to finish and solve the mysteries.

They all seemed to interconnect and closure being sought has it’s own merits. It was good, but just not great.

I received this book for review from Tyndale Blog Network. The opinions contained herein are my own.
