Cold to the Touch: A Thriller -- Kerri Hakoda

<b><i>American Predator</i> meets Harlan Coben in this taut, ticking-clock thriller in which women are being kidnapped and murdered in the dead of an Alaskan winter.</b> <p/>When the body of a barista is found in the once-pristine Alaskan snow, Anchorage homicide detective DeHavilland Beans is gutted to recognize the young woman, Jolene. He'd bought coffee from her every morning and knew her as a bright college student working her way through school. Devastated by the murder and by the life cut short, Beans vows to find the killer. <p/>Since scavengers damaged the body, obtaining any usable evidence is impossible, even with the assistance of wildlife expert Raisa Ingalls, Beans's ex. When the body of another woman is found, a serial killer is suspected and the FBI joins the hunt. <p/>After a third body turns up, Beans is desperate to find the killer--especially when another woman goes missing. With the murderer moving so quickly, Beans and his team are determined to stop the spree and catch the killer before it's too late. <p/>Pulse-pounding and vividly depicted, this Alaskan thriller will electrify fans of Lisa Gardner and true crime junkies fascinated by the Israel Keyes case.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Kerri Hakoda<br><b>Publisher:</b> Crooked Lane Books<br><b>Published:</b> 04/09/2024<br><b>Pages:</b> 336<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Hardcover<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.85lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.27h x 5.67w x 1.26d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781639107759<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>Libr
