Cold Case Double Cross by Jessica R Patch gives readers plenty of action and suspense from the start. Police detective Cash Ryland’s brother is in jail for murder, but Cash doesn’t think he’s guilty. He convinces his high school ex-girlfriend, cold case investigator Mae Vogel, to take up the case. Too bad he and Mae have a rocky past. But Mae soon realizes that they are both being targeted for getting too close to the truth.
With lots of suspects and plenty of life-or-death danger, this story is a definite home run for a suspense fan like me. The characters had chemistry and the plot twists kept me rapidly flipping pages until the end. The ending was quite unexpected, and I love books that keep me guessing who the culprit is until the very last page. This is the first novel I’ve read by this author, and now I’ve just added a bunch of her novels to my wish list.
Overall Rating:
5 stars (I loved it, couldn’t put it down)
Suspense Rating:
5 stars (Non-stop edge-of-your-seat suspense from start to finish)
