An Evan Hale Thriller

Cold Water

by C.M. Oxford

A missing woman. A decade-old murder. A network that buries both.

About The Book

Marine veteran PI Evan Hale takes missing persons cases. He doesn't expect them to lead to murder.
When retired Naval Commander Patricia Vance hires him to find her daughter Lindsey, a Kitsap County planning analyst who vanished after questioning a casino development permit, Evan pulls a thread that unravels a decade-old cover-up. A whistleblower died. The local sheriff buried it. The mayor built a career on the silence.
Now someone is erasing everyone who knows the truth. When his SPD partner Jack Moreno gets too close and ends up in a hospital bed, it stops being a case.
It becomes personal.
In a county where political ambition has always beaten justice, Evan has one edge: he doesn't stop. But the people he's protecting are running out of time, and the truth alone won't keep them alive.

Book 2 in the Rain City Series. Fans of Michael Connelly and David Baldacci will feel right at home in the rain-soaked streets of the Pacific Northwest.
