“Cold Pursuit” by Nancy Mehl

Watch Your Back!

River and Tony are best friends, and are former profilers for the FBI. They were good at their jobs, until the day they met a serial killer face to face, and their lives have never been the same. The killer is caught and put in prison.

Lucky to be alive, and believing they were safe, River and Tony decided to start their lives over. They moved hundreds of miles to St. Louis, and opened their own investigation agency.

When they finally get a client, they face lots of complications, such as witnesses that are dead, and a possible second crime. Their lives are threatened in a variety of ways while in a deadly race to catch the bad guy.

Additionally, the killer who attacked them while they were in the FBI, had a secret partner. Unknown to River and Tony, this second person has been stalking them planning revenge. Who this person is, and whether or not he will catch them, will be revealed in a future book, because this tale ends on a cliffhanger. This is installment one in the Ryland-St. Clair series.

This is a clean tale. The reader will undergo intense psychological experiences while “inside” the head of the bad guy. He has extreme mental health issues that might be difficult for some readers to digest.

I appreciated the discussion of faith, and the lack of it, by some of the characters. There is lots of action, and mystery. This five-star book will make you want to sleep with the lights on. Fans of cognitive thrillers will enjoy this tale.

Thank you, Bethany House, for providing Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, “Cold Pursuit,” for the purpose of review. I have not been compensated in any other manner. All opinions expressed are my own, and I was not required, or influenced, to give anything but an honest appraisal.
