The Cold Nowhere

The Cold Nowhere by Brian Freeman

My rating:

4 stars—I really liked it.

My Thoughts:

This was my next book following the Jonathan Stride series. Freeman got me on this one! I had a different suspect in mind, thought I had figured it all out…and I was wrong!

I really enjoy the characters in this series. Check it out! Starts with Immoral.

Stalked

Stalked by Brian Freeman

Amazon Description:

“Lieutenant Jonathan Stride knows his partner Maggie Bei is in trouble when she reports a deadly crime on a bitter winter night. She’s obviously hiding a terrible secret, and her silence only feeds suspicion. Maggie isn’t the only one keeping secrets in Duluth. A seductive young woman has disappeared, leaving behind a stash of lurid fantasies and a cryptic message: I know who it is. Following a twisted trail, Stride uncovers a sordid web of violence and voyeurism that someone is willing to kill to keep hidden. Stride isn’t alone. His lover Serena Dial – a homicide cop turned private investigator – is chasing a blackmailer who knows all the city’s dirty secrets. Even Maggie’s. But as Stride and Serena hunt for a killer, a predator with a vicious past is hunting them – with a terrifying plan for revenge. Now every step they take to expose the truth brings them closer to a showdown amid the howling winds of a winter storm. Where survival in the blinding snow is measured in seconds. Where crimes can be buried forever.”

My Thoughts:

I love this series!! Freeman is a rare talent in this genre. He had me guessing to the end on this one. The characters that he has created are complex and intriguing.

I definitely recommend this series to the police/crime/suspense fiction reader. First in the series is “Immoral.”

Stripped

Stripped by Brian Freeman

This is the second installment in the Jonathan Stride series. I really like Freeman’s style. He has a rare talent in character development.

A new favorite police suspense series. On to the next!
