My review:
Book 2 in the Kendall Beck series. I read The Wrong Woman a year ago, so I can’t really confirm if this is a true standalone. I am guessing it is since there are new cases.
FBI agent Kendall is back and teaming up with Adam the local detective on a kidnapping case.
I hate to love a missing child plot, but I can’t help it ~ this was a goodie. Adam’s niece goes missing and it’s a race against the clock to find her. I liked that each chapter gives us the timeline of how long she’s been missing. There was edge of your seat action and I know I am not the only one that’s going to be talking about that ending.
I was pleased with the narration by Erin DeWard for 9 hours and 51 minutes when she was doing her own voice, but her other tones were not great and sometimes distracting.
*Thanks to the author, Dreamscape Media and NetGalley for the ARC. I am voluntarily leaving my honest review*

Book blurb:
The stunning landscape of Colorado’s Rocky Mountains are among our greatest natural treasures. But there are deadly secrets lurking in the craggy heights. FBI Special Agent Kendall Beck and Denver Homicide Detective Adam Taylor team up to investigate a kidnapping crime, but the case quickly turns cold. When Taylor’s niece, Frankie, suddenly vanishes at a local hockey rink, it’s clear that there’s a predator on the loose—and now, the case has turned personal.
One discovery after another leads Beck and Taylor closer to the truth, as they close in on the devastating truth about the fates of the missing girls—and the many who came before them. Will they be able to find Frankie before it’s too late? In this thrilling story, Leanne Kale Sparks weaves the threads of this harrowing drama and builds the intensity to a fever pitch.
