It's time to put the past to rest…

Ben Packard was just a boy when his older brother disappeared. Ben watched him walk out the back door of their grandparents' house and into the cold night.

His brother was never seen again.

Decades later, Deputy Packard finds himself with too much time on his hands. A shooting has him on leave and under investigation, and all he can do is dwell on the past. For the first time in years, new information about his brother has surfaced that may lead them to the location of a body.

The midwinter ground is frozen solid. Worse, Packard is cut off from department resources. As he strikes out to finally uncover the truth behind his brother's disappearance, he stumbles on a separate, suspicious death. A tenuous connection exists between the two cases, and as Packard starts to dig, he meets fierce resistance from friends and foes alike who want him to stand down.

The winter is long and cold. By the end of it, Packard will risk everything to catch a killer and reveal the shocking truth about his brother.

This book is amazing, perhaps the best of the three. While you can read this as a standalone, I recommend starting with the first book. I listen to books daily, but I rarely take the time to review. I love this book (and series) so much that I’m taking the time. It draws you in, the characters come to life, some you hate, some you dislike, and some you like so much you that just really wish they were your friends in real life because you already know them so well. The third book in the series resolves a mystery that started in book one, but each book in the series has its own main mystery. I really do hope that the series continues. My highest recommendation.

One of the best series

This story was really awesome. What was the best about this book is how Packard is able to carry on the best he can when faced with work. Well Done.

I love the world built in this series, the characters feel flawed, with depth and interesting stories. The end of this book felt very rewarding in wrapping up the story so far. I really enjoyed the gay storyline and realistic representation of gay life and trying to balance being gay with work life.

Captivating mystery
