This is the second book in the series. The first book is Cold Shot, and the third
book, Blind Spot, will be released fall 2017.
Avery attends a photography show and notices that even
though her friend isn’t there, a disturbing picture of her is. She saves the picture and begins to look for
her friend. She calls her Parker, even
though she walked away from him to save her heart. She loves him, but he’s in love with the
memory of his first love.
Parker wants to help Avery find her friend, but hopes aren’t
high of finding the young woman alive, especially after they examine the
photograph closely. They begin their
search for the photographer, but things aren’t going to be easy.
They’re working with others of the Charm City Investigations
team, including Declan, a federal agent.
A murder aboard a merchant ship alerts him to the fact that a terrorist
has come to America and is now loose in the city. He asks Tanner, a feisty woman who intrigues
and scares him at the same time, to help with the refugees.
There’s a lot going on, and it’s a bit chaotic trying to
keep up sometimes. The whole “Still Life”
aspect was pretty freaky, and I found myself frowning when I read about it
throughout the book. And reading about
Parker and Avery’s romance at the same time was difficult. It just didn’t seem like a good time to start
a relationship.
This was a good book, and I liked it overall, but I’m not
sure it was one of my favorites. Most of
the time, when I pick up one of Pettrey’s books, I don’t put it down. This time, I think the subject matter
distracted me enough that I didn’t enjoy it as much as I normally do. It’s still a good book, and I’m still looking
forward to Blind Spot in the fall. Good
Book!

NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
