"Detective Nick Severs of the award-winning series opener Severed Echoes returns in Cold Trace.
When the body of young Ben Harris is found after a Colorado snowstorm, Detective Nick Severs is drawn into a missing child case that went cold twenty years ago. As he and his hacker girlfriend Claire begin the investigation, every dark turn takes them deeper into the underworld of child trafficking and cybercrime, where bringing the killer to justice may require crossing the line.
Note to readers: Cold Trace is Book 2 of Nick Severs Mysteries. It is a self-contained mystery, but it does include several spoilers from Book 1. To avoid backstory gaps and spoilers, readers new to the series may want to begin with Book 1: Severed Echoes."
"A Colorado crime thriller with more twists and turns than a Rocky Mountains highway
In the small town of Pine Lake, Colorado, Lisa Benoche is dead, and an audio recording threatens to turn what looks like a suicide into the first murder investigation the town has seen in many years. As the rookie detective Nick Severs digs deeper into the high-tech motives surrounding her death, he has no idea that a female hacktivist group have already set their sights on him, and that a dark chapter from his own past is about to catch up to him."
