A frozen corpse.A missing witness.Strange voices that aren't there.One cold night, Lainie Goff, a glamorous young attorney on the fast track to a partnership at Portland's top firm, is found frozen in the trunk of her BMW on the local fishing pier.Detectives Mike McCabe and Maggie Savage quickly uncover a long list of suspects: Lainie's boss, who was also her lover; an ex-priest who runs a shelter for runaway teens; an abusive stepfather who raped Lainie as a teen; and a creepy landlord who seems to know more than he should about her private life.Still, there is no hard evidence until a mentally ill young woman who hears voices gives an island cop an eyewitness account he doesn't take seriously.But when she too disappears, McCabe and Savage find themselves in a desperate race against time to stop a vicious killer before he rids himself of the only person who knows who he is.

I'm continuing my reread/re-listen to this series. The mystery in this one is even more chilling (pun intended) with more twists and a bit more violence. The narrator also has a pretty calming voice.

TW: sexual abuse, sexual violence (not much but enough to warrant a warning I think)

Liatrek Love this series! I still need to read 6y
annkuch13 @Liatrek Same! That's why I'm rereading all of them. 😁 6y

I normally do not read thrillers or mystery novels, but recently I have been opening up my reading interests. I genuinely liked this book, I felt that the characters felt relatable, their interactions were believable and I really liked the twist reveal at the end. My only complaint is that some of the loose ends didn't feel tied up properly, and one of the characters is called by 2 different names throughout the book. A solid enjoyable read.

A candle, hot cocoa, and a new book. Nothing better on a cold night like tonight!
