Excerpt from Cold Fear #books #teasertuesday

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, read the rules at A Daily Rhythm. Anyone can play along!

I am most of the way through Rick Mofina’s Cold Fear. It is a police procedural thriller about a missing child, and has kept my attention thus far!

Did you lose control, Doug? How did you hurt your hand? What was going on in the time before your daughter had vanished?

Rick Mofina, Cold Fear

In the remote, rugged corner of Montana’s Glacier National Park known as the Devil’s Grasp, little Paige Baker of San Francisco disappears with her dog, Kobee, while on a camping trip with her family; or so her mother and father have told authorities.

A multi-agency task force launches a massive search as Paige fights to survive in the wilderness. Time hammers against her and soon the nation is gripped by the life-and-death drama.

Secretly, behind the scenes, the FBI grows suspicious of Paige’s parents. Their recent history and disturbing evidence links them to a horrible secret from the past.

That is one of my biggest fears: that one of my little ones would get lost in the woods during a camping trip. I would be interested to know what happens at the end; great post!
