A great addition to this series. I loved the twists throughout this story, they kept me flipping pages. About the time you have it figured out, a new twist pops up. Loved it. Great characters and plot. Can't wait for the next one.

Three months. Three missing women. One PI determined to discover the truth.
Back from break, PI Martina Monroe clears the air with her boss at Drakos Security & Investigations and is ready to jump right into solving cold cases for the CoCo County Sheriff’s Department.
Diving into the cold case files Martina stumbles upon a pattern of missing young women, all of whom were deemed runaways, and the files froze with minimal detective work from the original investigators. The more Martina digs into the women’s last days the more shocking discoveries she makes.
Soon, Martina and Detective Hirsch not only uncover additional missing women but when their star witness turns up dead, they must rush to the next before it’s too late.

This is a brilliant read.
Wonderful well written plot and story line that had me engaged from the start.
Love the well fleshed out characters and found them believable.
Great suspense and found myself second guessing every thought I had continuously.
Can't wait to read what the author brings out next.
Recommend reading.

I was provided an ARC from NetGalley and the publisher. This is my own honest voluntary review.

I didn’t realise this was book 2 so I had to get book one before I could start this one it was definitely worth the wait and I now can’t wait for the rest of the series. Martina Monroe is a Pi who is working with Detective Hirsch. I enjoyed both characters they were well written and I connected with them. Martina solves cold cases which always interest me.
This book was interesting well written and enjoyable.

Martina Monroe is working with Detective Hirsch from the CoCo County Sheriffs Department looking into cold cases. She begins to notice a pattern of young women with similar stories that were listed by the investigators as runaways. Martina believes there is more to the story and as she begins her research more patterns begin to emerge, and more people become involved.
This is the second book in H.K. Christie’s Martina Monroe series. She throws little pieces from the 1st book but not so much that the reader feels lost from not knowing what happens in book #1. The characters work well together. So many authors jump between characters and different timelines and leave the reader in mass confusion. Christie is able to switch between characters smoothly. Great mystery that keeps you focused and looking for the next clue. I hated to come to end but it left me ready for #3 in the series.
Thank you, H.K. Christie, Keekstar Media and NetGalley for the advance copy in exchange for an honest review.

This is the second book in the series and it was a great read. I love the pairing of these investigators. Can’t wait to read the next book👏🏻

Martina Monroe is a private investigator and recovering alcoholic. She’s recently teamed up with Detective Hirsch from the CoCo County Sheriffs Dept to look into cold cases. The pair just solved a big case together and hope to keep the streak going.

As she goes through old case files, Martina notices there are several cases of missing young women that share the same profile. Are they runaways or could they be the victim of kidnapping The investigation leads to the exposure of questionable police work and a possible coverup. Why would the officers have done this? Are the girls alive?

Thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for the advance copy in exchange for an honest review.

PI Martina Monroe is solving cold cases for the County Sheriff's Department.
She chooses cold cases of missing girls, and finds that there is a pattern, and a similarity between the girls that are missing.
The cases were barely investigated and thrown aside as runaway girls. Martina is convinced that the girls were kidnapped.

She works tirelessly with Detective Hirsch to find the fate of these girls in order to give the families closure.

OK, this is what I love. A strong female lead with brains! And I got what I wanted in this book. I could not put it down! I read this in one sitting, and seriously want to read more of H K Christie's books! Absolutely rivetting and would recommend this book to readers who love a fast paced police/PI procedural.

A solid 5/5 from me

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review!!
