Synopsis:

When a woman’s body is discovered submerged in a crab pot in the chilly waters of Puget Sound, Detective Tracy Crosswhite finds herself with a tough case to untangle. Before they can identify the killer, Tracy and her colleagues on the Seattle PD’s Violent Crimes Section must figure out who the victim is. Her autopsy, however, reveals she may have gone to great lengths to conceal her identity. So who was she running from?
After evidence surfaces that their Jane Doe may be a woman who suspiciously disappeared months earlier, Tracy is once again haunted by the memory of her sister’s unsolved murder. Dredging up details from the woman’s past leads to conflicting clues that only seem to muddy the investigation. As Tracy begins to uncover a twisted tale of brutal betrayal and desperate greed, she’ll find herself risking everything to confront a killer who won’t go down without a deadly fight. Once again, New York Times bestselling author Robert Dugoni delivers a taut, riveting thriller in the fourth installment of his acclaimed Tracy Crosswhite series.


Review: 

This is book 4 in the Tracy Crosswhite Series, series, but the first one I had read.  But I think it is a great place to come into the series late, as Dugoni gives you a lot of  background information, but not enough to keep you from reading the previous 3 books! In fact, by the time you finish reading this roller coaster ride with all its twists, turns, Mount Everest drops and red herrings, you're gonna be running off to grab the other 3 books! Dugoni knows what he writes! His research is very evident, in the way he gets all the nuances of his settings right, how the cops interact with each other, and other agencies, and how This is anotehr book you will NOT want to put down! So be sure to add it to your wish list!
