Thank you to #NetGalley, the publisher #Thomas&Mercer and the author for the opportunity to read and review the latest instalment of the "Tracy Crosswhite" series, "In Her Tracks".
Tracy is back from leave after the harrowing time she had which culminated in a very personal case solution. But she's back to find her place on the A Team has been taken and she's been relegated to Cold Case Files after the retirement of the current officer. Knowing that the main reason for this is the animosity of her Captain, Johnny Nolasco (who has had in in for her for years, dating back to the Academy), she decides to make the best of the situation, as two of her Cold Case files are recent, and one hits close to home - the disappearance of the 5-year-old daughter of a former Cop.
Elle Chin went missing on a night out with her father, when they were playing hide-and-go-seek in a corn maze. And to this day, nothing has been found to solve her disappearance. Both parents blamed each other at the time, and apparently still do.
Her other Cold Cases are the disappearances of two known prostitutes - similar to her previous "Cowboy" case - but he's been put away for good.
No sooner has she gotten started on these cases, when her old partner Kinsington asks for her help on a current case, as no one else is available.
A young woman has gone missing while out jogging in an unfamiliar part of town and her family and friends fear that there has been foul play involved.
What unfolds is a multi-generational horror story which puts Tracy deep into the search for the missing woman, while at the same time she's still looking for Elle Chin and the two missing prostitutes.
Mr. Dugoni tells a tightly-woven tale from start to finish, and I was kept guessing through most of the book, even when all of the loose ends seem to have been tied up - but Tracy, through a remarkable bit of insight, has one last solution up her sleeve.
As I said at the end of 'A Cold Trail', the previous book in the series, this is a series well worth your time and highly recommended.

Thank you Netgalley for this free ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is the first book I read in the Tracy Crosswhite series. I am totally impressed! I love that there were two mysteries in one. First the missing little girl Elle Chin, who went missing on an outing with her dad. Elle's mom and dad blamed each other for her abduction. I wont say who was to blame, but i was quite surprised when I found out! The second mystery is a young woman that went jogging in a park and was abducted. Surprisingly, she was not the only young lady that was missing from the area. Two other women are also missing. But are they related? The only similarities are the vicinity of where they came up missing. Tracy Crosswhite has her work cut out for her. Will she find the jogger alive? Time is not on her side, but she is determined.
This book is a fast read and keeps you interested. You wont be disappointed!

Eighth in the Tracy Crosswhite series. It can be read as a standalone, but character and thematic development may make more sense if you are familiar with the earlier books.

Excellent police procedural, with a complex, evolving heroine and a cast of intriguing supporting characters.

Many thanks to NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

In Her Tracks – Robert Dugoni

After a medical leave for some PTSD following her last case, Tracy Crosswhite is finally cleared to return to work. As she arrives for her first day, she’s promptly called to Capt. Nolasco’s office, only to learn that her Violent Crimes Squad team position was given to another detective while she was away. Her only choice is to assume to role of cold case investigator, whose present detective happens to be retiring today. Feeling cornered, Traci stops by the cold case office to get the lay of the land.

Meanwhile, Stephanie Cole is planning on running a new jogging path at an out of the way park, before heading to a Halloween party. As she finally locates the park and sets out, she’s surprised to find that the running trail dead ends. She turns around to run back, but never makes it out of the woods.

As Tracy gets settled and reviews some of the cold cases, a couple in particular catch her eye. One is that of the disappearance of a Seattle police officer’s daughter, 5 years ago, after playing hide and seek in a corn maze. The child was never found. More than a bit intrigued, Tracy digs into the file. Then a knock on the door brings her former partner Kins, who has just picked up the missing jogger case, and asks her to take a ride, as he lays out the situation. Together they start some interviews as they attempt to discover the whereabouts of Stephanie Cole. Tracy then recalls two of the case files in her office – also those of missing women from the same general area – and wonders if they might be related.

As Tracy, Kins and the rest of the VCS team race against time to find a missing woman, the missing child from years ago is not ever far from Tracy’s mind. As DNA evidence mounts, the team zeroes in on a suspect, desperately hoping to find Stephanie alive, but there’s still a piece of the puzzle missing…and time is running out…

This is another series I’ve discovered, thanks to Netgalley & Thomas & Mercer Publishers, and it does not disappoint. A first-rate protagonist, and a fast-paced thriller make for another fantastic read from Robert Dugoni! As always, I cannot wait for Tracy’s next adventure!

In Her Tracks is another thrilling read in the Detective Tracy Crosswhite series. Back from an extended maternity leave, Tracy finds herself replaced in her department and facing a placement in the cold case department. Replacing the only detective in Cold Cases, Tracy dives in to the cases until her former partner Kins draws her into his case. With Tracy's hardball determination, the cases quickly escalate as Tracy finds a way to work cold cases and solve the current missing persons case. Killing two birds with one stone, Tracy proves why she is one of the best detectives to grace the pages of a mystery series ever. Suspenseful and action packed, the story is unputdownable for another addicting addition to the Tracy Crosswhite series. My voluntary, unbiased review is based upon a review copy from Netgalley.

Another Tracy Crosswhite 5 star winner. The story revolves around a cold case file of the disappearance of a little 5 year old girl, and the recent disappearance of a jogger in a local park. Two different scenarios, both bringing in a range of characters that you can actually picture in your minds eye. You are not going to believe the ending. Wow! The one thing I love about Robert Dugoni’s books is he tells a good story, and each character is well thought out. I really enjoyed this read and I will be recommending this book to all my book clubs, and I’ll make sure we have plenty of copies for our library patrons. Thank you NetGalley, Thomas & Mercer, and Robert Dugoni for allowing me this advanced digital copy for a honest review. Well Done Mr. Dugoni on your latest work. I can’t wait for more.

Great read! In Her Tracks is the eighth book in the Tracy Crosswhite series. You don’t have to read the other books to enjoy this one. Tracy returns to work from a leave of absence and takes on all the cold cases. Tracy starts out investigating a missing little girl and then getting thrown into several missing persons. The abduction of one young women becomes the main focus. There are some surprises, great book. Thank you net galley for the art

My thanks to NetGalley, the author and publisher for an ARC of In Her Tracks In exchange for an honest review.

Robert Dugoni has done it again- written an exciting and suspenseful installment in the Tracy Crosswhite series, While this book could be read as a stand-alone, I would recommend to read the entire series in order to gain full understanding of the enigmatic protagonist, Detective Crosswhite’s character is multi dimensional and engaging. To Mr, Dugani’s credit, the rich character development of all the principles endears them to the reader and successfully propels these stories. Another mark of such dynamic and round characters is their authentic dialogue.

In addition to the characterization, the story arc is intriguing with plenty of twists and mystery. The pacing is fast. It is a suspenseful and totally satisfying police procedural crime story! I also appreciate the thematic messages that underscore Mr. Dugoni’s stories: family bonds and loss, guilt and forgiveness, the meaning faces of loyalty and love. to name a few.

I always look forward to reading the next installment!

A good solid read with Detective Tracy Crosswhite solving a couple of cold cases involving a missing child and two prostitutes . Also she helps out in a recent case involving a missing female jogger. The action moves quickly and you finish the book feeling that good sometimes wins over evil.

BIG thanks to NetGalley, Thomas & Mercer, and Robert Dugoni for sending me a free copy of this book to read and review. It's my first NetGalley book and it just happens to have been written by one of my very favorite authors!

I love this series and it keeps getting better and better. In "In her Tracks," Detective Tracy Crosswhite finds herself reassigned to the Seattle PD’s cold case unit. It feels like a slap in the face at first but becomes something she is intrigued by. Then her former partner, Kinsington “Kins” Rowe asks for Tracy's help in his own missing person case. From there it's a wild ride and I absolutely did NOT want to put the book down! Mr. Dugoni is brilliant at developing characters and plots.

This book can be read as a stand-alone but I feel it will be most appreciated by the reader who has read the entire series.

I. Can't. Wait. for the next book in the series to be written!!

This is the 2nd book I have read by this author. Excellent mystery story!!! Will try to read more by Mr. Dugoni!!!

I've read several books by Robert Dugoni and have enjoyed them all. His books are easy to follow and very fast paced. Many times I had to stop reading and didn't want to. I highly recommend this book and anything else that he's written.

Robert Dugoni keeps getting better and better. He paints a picture with few words, making us turn the pages to see what happens next. As the latest installment in the Tracy Crosswhite series, this thriller can be read independently. The day Tracy returns from maternity and medical leave, she learns she’s been re-assigned to the Cold Case Unit from Violent Crimes, where she had a 100% success rate. Cold cases have gotten under her skin in the past. Can she adjust to her new position and solve cold cases that may break her heart and bring her too close to her past? Thanks to NetGalley for the opportunity to read an advance copy in exchange for an honest review.

Super cop Tracy Crosswhite returns to work following an extended leave only to find the her revengeful boss has moved her out of her violent crimes position and into cold cases. But it turns into a good thing for us, her ardent fans. Robert Dugoni, the author, expertly merges Tracy’s new role with her old in two well-developed cases. In one case a five-year old case involving a child abduction haunts her, while a cold series of missing prostitutes and a current case of a missing jogger seem too similar to ignore. The Medal of Valor recipient and her band of friends work together in a well-paced novel that includes excellent twists.

A big thank you to NetGalley and Thomas Mercer Publishing for providing me an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I have enjoyed all the Tracy Crosswhite books and this one was a great new chapter in the series. The books are set in my home native PNW and the Robert Dugoni lives one town over from me so it always feels like I am reading a story set in my backyard.

Except I dont want any of the people in this story in my backyard! Well at least not the suspects.

Tracy is in a time of transition in her life. Everything with her sister is settled, she has a husband and a new daughter, shes recovered from the traumatic last case she worked....and now her a-hole boss is sabotaging her return to the SPD, trying to make her quit by assigning her to take over the cold case unit from a retiring detective.

True to form, Tracy rises to the occasion and is soon embroiled in multiple cases that intertwine past and present. I loved that she is seeing a therapist to help her during this time as well...after all shes been through she needs it!

The cases themselves were pretty good. Dugoni leads you to believe you know who did it...but there are some good surprises in store before the end. For me these books are much more character driven than plot - I love seeing how Tracys life plays out and just enjoying the cases she solves along the way.

This was excellent! I love these Tracy Crosswhite books, and this was one of the best yet! I was somewhat disappointed when she couldn't get her old job back (not to give any spoilers), but Dugoni very much redeemed himself and the stories were great! Highly recommend this series and looking forward to the next one!

In Her Tracks is another solid entry in the Tracy Crosswhite series. The book begins with Tracy coming back from a leave of absence to find that her spot on the Seattle PD homicide team isn't available. She reluctantly takes a spot on the cold case unit and soon find herself immersed in a strange case involving a missing girl and her warring parents. Along the way she helps her former partner Kinsington Rowe with a case of a missing woman who disappeared while running. The two cases begin to twist and turn, pulling Tracy down into the dark world of betrayal and revenge. I have read all the books in this series and always look forward to the next one.

I absolutely love this author. This series is definitely one that I have particularly enjoyed. Tracey Crosswhite is truly a memorable character. I love her spunk and quick wit. Her dedication to her job is admirable. I like detective books and this does not disappoint

This is the 8th book in the Tracy Crosswhite series and each book just gets better. This book takes up when she returns to work from having her new baby and starts working cold cases. I hope this series continues for a long time

I am a big fan of Robert Dugoni's Tracy Crosswhite series, so I was eager to read the latest installment and Mr. Dugoni does not disappoint. Tracy returns to work at the Seattle police department after extended leave only find her spot on the violent crimes "A team" taken. After hesitantly accepting assignment as the cold case unit's only detective, Tracy delves into the disappearance of a 5 year old girl while visiting a corn maze with her father 5 years ago. The parents, in the middle of a nasty divorce, each blames the other. Despite no new information, Tracy decides to take another look at the case. As she begins her investigation, Tracy's former partner asks for her help on an active case, the disappearance of a young woman while jogging that Tracy speculates could be connected to another of her cases, two missing prostitutes. The story weaves between the cold case and the active investigation, as well as Tracy's home life as she balances being a new motherhood with her return to work and her unexpected emotional response to working cold cases. Well written, fast-paced, good plot development, great characters. Thank you to NetGalley and Thomas & Mercer Publishing for the opportunity to read and review this book prior to publication.
