GIVEAWAY!!! As a result, I have an extra copy for one “lucky” commentor!! Be sure to leave a comment (and an email address!!) for a chance to win!! (U.S. Only, please).
About the book:
To save her husband and son, Audrey Bofinger must rescue her enemy.
The Bofinger family has lost their church ministry in a scandal exposed by Officer Jack Mansfield. Hoping to heal and to restore their reputation, Audrey, Geoff, and their son Ed take over a failing bakery in the small community.Driving to the bakery one morning, blinded by fog, Audrey hits a motor scooter owned by Jack’s wife, Julie. The mangled scooter is crushed and bloody. But Julie is nowhere to be found. Her disappearance coincides with a sudden illness that nearly cripples Audrey.Jack believes the Bofingers have hurt Julie to take revenge on him, but the evidence dries up and her trail goes cold. At a breaking point, Jack takes the tiny bakery and its patrons hostage, issuing only one demand: Audrey has six hours to return Julie to him or lose Geoff and Ed forever.
With only an excruciating and intuitive gift, an ex-con, and Julie’s estranged daughter to help search for clues, Audrey starts the search of her life for a woman who has vanished like the fog. |

Ronie’s Review:
Once again Healy compiles a solid story of suspense and thrills. The story was complex but satisfying. I did find the opening a bit slow and some parts hard to engage, but no big–the story was absolutely engrossing all the same. Healy definitely knows how to write villains in a way that feels like a splinter. . .then a wedge. . .then a full-blown plank of pain and aggravation. Loved the premise for the heroine–intriguing and compelling!! Heartbreaking issues in this story with a triumph-over-tragedy ending.
Overall a very good read.
