Summary

An Amazon Charts and Wall Street Journal bestselling series.

What family secrets are behind two disappearances? Seattle detective Tracy Crosswhite is determined to uncover the truth in the latest installment of New York Times bestselling author Robert Dugoni's heart-stopping series.

Returning from an extended leave in her hometown of Cedar Grove, Detective Tracy Crosswhite finds herself reassigned to the Seattle PD's cold case unit. As the protective mother of an infant daughter, Tracy is immediately drawn to her first file: the abduction of a five-year-old girl whose parents, embattled in a poisonous divorce, were once prime suspects.

While reconstructing the days leading up to the girl's disappearance, Tracy is brought into an active investigation with former partner Kinsington Rowe. A young woman has vanished on an isolated jogging trail in North Seattle. Divided between two critical cases, Tracy has little to go on except the treacherous deceptions behind a broken marriage--and now, the secrets hiding behind the closed doors of a deceptively quiet middle-class neighborhood.

To find two missing persons, Tracy will have to follow more than clues, which are both long cold and unsettlingly fresh. Given her own traumatic past, Tracy must also follow her instincts--to whatever dark and dangerous places they may lead.

Publisher's Weekly Review

Thriller Award finalist Dugoni's gripping eighth mystery featuring Seattle homicide detective Tracy Crosswhite (after 2020's A Cold Trail) opens with Tracy returning from medical leave to the SPD's Violent Crimes Section only to be abruptly transferred to the Cold Case Unit by her superior, Capt. Johnny Nolasco, who has a grudge against her dating back to when he was a police academy instructor and she was a trainee. As Nolasco knows, investigating cold cases could prove emotionally taxing for Tracy, because she has been obsessively searching for a missing sister for 20 years. Nolasco hopes she'll resign. Instead, Tracy plunges into several cases, one involving two missing prostitutes that she's able to tie to a Violent Crimes search for a woman who recently moved to the city and disappeared from the same neighborhood as the prostitutes. The easy give and take between Tracy and her former Violent Crimes colleague, Kinsington Rowe, with whom she works on the cold cases, is a highlight. Several plot surprises lead to a satisfying ending. Fans of police procedurals will hope Tracy has a long career. Agent: Rebecca Scherer, Jane Rotrosen Agency. (Apr.)
