If you like a police procedural stories, then this book is for you! 
It’s really nice to get back with Det. Katie Scott and her partner as well as her K9 dog, Cisco which becomes the star of the show on this book! 
 
Another interesting case has appeared in Pine Valley for Det. Scott to solve and this time her enemy isn’t just the killer but also against time as she has to found the missing girl before it’s too late. 
 
I really like Det. Scott and her partner, they are one of the best detectives with great teamwork which is why I keep coming back to this series every time a new book is out. 
 
As much as I like the mystery of the case and also the way the investigation is going, I’m quite disappointed with Chad (Katie’s fiancée)’s action. 
I know the romance is just a side plot, but still I was annoyed to see him behave like that towards Katie. 
 
Nonetheless, Katie is a strong FMC and I’m sure she’ll get back up again… I’m also sensing the romance aspect may take a different path and I can’t wait to see what happens next! 
 
Overall, a good addition to the series and I feel satisfied with how things got wrapped up in the end. I’m really looking forward to the next book of this series! 
 
I received an advanced review copy for free through Netgalley, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. Huge thank you to the author and publisher!
