A Chris Matheson Cold Case Mystery: Book 2
Publication Date: January 22, 2019
It all started with a chance encounter in the city with Blair, his late wife.
Chris Matheson and the Geezer Squad, working under the guise of a book club, dig into the events surrounding his late wife’s supposed death halfway around the globe. A state department employee shoots himself in the back three times. A CIA operative goes missing. A woman is targeted by an international assassin three years after being declared dead in a terrorist attack overseas.
Nothing is as it seems.
In his most personal cold case, Chris fights to uncover why the state department told him that Blair, the mother of his children, had been killed when she was alive. What had she uncovered that has made her a target? Who terrified her so much that she had gone into hiding and why are they now after him?
The Geezer Squad is back with another action-packed mystery, and this time it is personal. As the second installment in the Chris Matheson Cold Case series, Winter Frost brings Matheson face-to-face with a ghost.
Author Lauren Carr delivers an action-packed story from the beginning chapter when Matheson sees the wife he thought died three years ago and chases her through the metro station, only to find her being escorted surreptitiously at gunpoint by an international assassin. When Matheson shoots him, the woman slips away.
Whisked away by one of the alphabet agencies, Chris finds himself and fellow agents in danger. He turns to the Geezer Squad for assistance in identifying the enemy. Meanwhile, Chris and Helen find themselves in a predicament regarding their budding relationship.
This installment can easily be read as a standalone, thanks to the helpful cast of characters at the beginning of the story. However, I recommend reading in sequence to watch the evolution of the characters, along with their four-legged companions.
Winter Frost delivers another well-developed mystery featuring Matheson and the Geezer Squad. It’s packed with plenty of twists and turns leading to an explosive conclusion.
Lauren Carr is the international best-selling author of the Mac Faraday, Lovers in Crime, and Thorny Rose Mysteries—over twenty titles across three fast-paced mystery series filled with twists and turns!
Book reviewers and readers alike rave about how Lauren Carr’s seamlessly crosses genres to include mystery, suspense, romance, and humor.
