Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Katie Scott (9)
" When Detective Katie Scott receives a plea from neighboring Coldwater Creek to help with a tragic murder, she doesn't hesitate. Fifteen-year-old Ivy Miller's naked body was found tied to a tree, a freshly inked pink rose tattoo on her arm. The word 'MORE' carved into her back means sweet Ivy could be the first of many... Katie's heart aches for the young girl whose life ended before it had even begun. But she has her work cut out with the inexperienced police department fumbling the case at every turn. There hasn't been a murder in this small town for as long as anyone can remember, but why will none of the locals cooperate? Katie's only lead is a blurry photograph of Ivy's long-missing mother found in Ivy's bedroom. If she can find out where it was taken, Katie knows she'll have the first clue in a mystery that has been haunting Coldwater Creek for years. But Katie's world crashes down when Ivy's two best friends are found murdered in the same woods days later. Inked with the same pretty flower, the rose girls were keeping a deadly secret. Katie will never forgive herself for not making the connection in time. As mothers cling to their daughters, terrified to let them out of their sight, Katie's search leads her to an abandoned building deep in the forest where the last photo of Ivy's mother was taken. But will she survive long enough to stop more heart-shattering tragedies?"--Publisher. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Detective Katie Scott 9
Intense, dark, gritty, and gripping from first page till the end – couldn’t put it down once begun.
What I liked:
* Katie: ex-military K-9 handler and war veteran, cold case detective, works for her uncle who is the local sheriff, owner of Cisco the retired K-9, suffers from PTSD, engaged to Chad, focused, sometimes impulsive, dedicated to solving cases that come her way.
* Ciscso: Katie’s K-9 partner, retired from military, companion to Katie, skilled at his job, loving and protective, helps ground Katie
* Sean: detective, Katie’s work partner, calm presence, good balance to Katie, in a relationship with Denise
* The plot, writing, character development, creepy atmosphere in Coldwater Creek that is isolated and filled with secrets
* That this story was based primarily on police procedure and not as much on personal lives of characters – though we did catch up with a few and how they are doing
* The supporting characters – new to and already established in the series
* Joshuar – octogenarian, citizen of Coldwater Creek, cagey, wise, seemed a good soul
* That the case is solved at the end with no cliff hanger
What I didn’t lik:
* Who and what I was meant not to like
* Thinking about how selfish and amoral some people can be and how little regard they hold for the lives of others.
Did I like this book? Yes
Would I read more in this series? Yes
