With the public eye fixed on the governor’s new Missing
Persons Task Force, Detective Evie Blackwell and her new partner, David, are
under pressure to produce results. While they investigate two missing-persons
cases in Chicago, Evie and David’s conviction that justice is truly possible
for all will be tested to the limit.
My Thoughts:
I have not read a Dee Henderson book in a long while, too
long so I opted to start with the second book in her new series, An Evie Blackwell Cold Case. This novel is
over 400 pages and did take me some time to read it. Not because it was slow or
anything, just because there was so much story and information within in the
story that really did fascinate me. The author definitely has done her research
in how missing person cold cases are handled and just some of the thought
processes and work processes that are involved.
This is about a team of detectives that are given cold cases
to try to solve. This particular story was focused on Evie Blackwell and her
partner David. The amount of information they had to process and given the time
that had passed on the cases, to me was staggering. I thoroughly enjoyed the
way their brains worked and the white board scenarios that grew from looking at
all the old evidence with fresh eyes.
We do get to see some of the personal lives of these
detectives, especially in the romance department. I liked that we had two
people working together and they were just friends and partners as they each
had someone else special.
This story was intricately detailed and was quite a
mystery/suspense. I wanted to just peek at the end so many times to see how
everything wrapped up but I did not as that would have ruined the whole story.
If you enjoy well-done crime dramas, this is a story that really gets into the
details of how detectives work.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Bethany
House Publishers. I was not required to give a positive review and the views
and opinions expressed are my own.
