Patrick Wolf is an ex-cop who is trying to live life off the grid, cabin in the woods, no phones, a sanctuary, 20 acres in rural North Carolina. His grandfather left him the land but he never thought he would return to it. Funny how certain events turn your life upside down. He does have a girlfriend Jenna who has a daughter Kayla. The people of the nearby town know him and give him his space. He has no problem spending time alone just walking around his land. He is happy with his life.Then he learns of a prison break across the state and quickly realizes his past will be coming back to hunt him down. He helped put his partner, a dirty cop, behind bars and at the trial told Wolf he would be coming after him. Kevin Cusp is on a mission to kill Patrick Wolf and nothing is going to stop him, not even a freak blizzard.Dollycas's ThoughtsThis is a whole new side to Tim Myers and I LIKE IT!!This is definitely NOT the cozy mystery Myers is known for. This is a smart, edgy, suspenseful story with well developed characters. Myers experience shines in writing characters that both women and men will enjoy. The rekindled relationship between Jenna and Wolf has you rooting for them to be together and Jenna's secret adds to the mix. The warped mind of Cusp is exactly what every good suspense novel needs, the perfect antagonist. Then there's the chase and the snow and the mystery of how these former partners will come together for their showdown. Surprises, edge of your seat moments, well done!I can't wait to read more of Myers' suspenseful stories as long as he continues to write the cozies I love too!
