Are the cases somehow connected?
As young mother, Tracy has to juggle between family and very demanding job.

Very dark and stunning novel, I loved it.

I have just finished reading Robert Dugoni's truly exceptional book, The Extraordinary Life of Sam Hell, and found myself fortunate enough to receive an ARC from NetGalley for the author's upcoming book. In Her Tracks is the 8th book in the author's Tracy Crosswhite series. Tracy is a detective for the Seattle Police Department. I had not read any of the previous Tracy Crosswhite books and found that In Her Tracks can be enjoyed on its own without having previous exposure to the series.

In this book, Tracy returns from a leave of absence and finds that she is being reassigned to cold cases, which she somewhat reluctantly accepts. She begins to work on a cold case involving the disappearance of a five-year-old girl. While working on this case, she is called on to help with a new case involving the apparent abduction of a young woman, who had been out running after work when last seen. In the case of the five-year-old girl, what happened to her is a true mystery. In the new case, the reader seemingly knows who was responsible for the abduction, but Tracy needs to find the proof.

Though the book opens with the cold case involving the little girl, the current case involving the abduction of the young woman becomes the main focus of the book.

This is a solid read with some surprises. Tracy Crosswhite is quite an appealing character. The author proves his versatility, not locked into one genre.

Wow what an absolutely fantastic read! Really enjoyed this book, I fact I read it in one sitting. This is such a great series and this didn’t disappoint. It was thrilling and suspenseful and kept me totally engrossed. I highly recommend this book, it totally deserves 5 stars.

Thanks Netgalley for allowing me to read this book. Detective Tracy Croswhite returns to work but is reassigned to the cold case unit. She is drawn to a case where a five year old girl went missing around Halloween. Her old partner asked for assistance with a woman who went missing while running. This book kept me guessing until the very end. I cant wait to read Robert Dugoni's next book.

Another great story in this saga. A bit different than the past in that there was less team involvement. I still enjoyed the story and found the mystery to be a good one with twists and turns. It would read fine alone.

Cold Cases and DNA: the Perfect Pair

Fantastic read! I had a hard time putting this one down and would wake in the middle of the night with my mind still in the middle of the story (which of course gave me ample time to read). This is my first Tracy Crosshair book and also first read by the author, I’m already making plans to find the rest of the series! I’m sure I don’t have to tell fans of the series not to miss reading this one, but seriously...do not miss reading this one!

I really related to Tracy on multiple levels but especially being a mother myself with a toddler and a new one on the way. Having a character like Tracy who is learning to balance family life on top of a new assignment in the cold case division, makes her a totally believable character. Cole Cases are some of the most interesting cases out there, the only unfortunate thing is how many of them go unsolved or cold in the first place. Tracy brought a new perspective and fresh eyes to work towards solving them. I especially appreciated the epilogue, nice final touch.

Robert Dugoni's In Her Tracks features my favorite Violent Crime Officer, Traci Crosswhite. While the pervious books had a focus on her family (and Faz!!!) this novel follows Traci as she navigates her new role as a Cold Case detective. Several cases become intertwined as she follows the leads in her cold case, but they could also impact her old team. The camaraderie is fantastic with her peers. Mr. Dugoni stays true to Traci and her quest to never forget her sister... whilst raising Daniella... and all the emotions that get wrapped around her. You don't have to have read the entire series to enjoy this book - it's fabulous on its own.

After an extended leave at home, Detective Tracy Crosswhite finds she has been reassigned to the Cold Case Unit at Seattle P.D. She immediately becomes caught up in the case of a missing 5 year old girl, whose parents were first believed to have had something to do with her disappearance. While trying to uncover the truth, an the whereabouts of the missing child, her old partner, Kingston brings her on board in an active case, the disappearance of a young woman from a local park. Now, with two missing females to trace, Tracy finds herself torn between her job and her own child. Could there be a link between these two cases?
