Search - Cold Heart

At the book's opening Houston cop Micky Ascherfeld survives a brutal shootout with two heavily armed robbers; her partner does not. Burned out and full of self-doubt, Micky visits a remote Alaskan village to recharge & ends up staying. Her refuge turns into a nightmare when one of the town's residents goes on a rampage that threatens to wipe out the village unless Micky can stop it.

Great wintry Alaskan setting, smart character behavior, amazingly well portrayed opening shootout, and there's even a nice map of the village included for you to follow the characters' movements as they play their deadly game of hide-and-seek.

I thought this was an easy to read evenings entertainment.

A burnt-out cop goes to Alaska to heal and meets
a ruthless killer who knows no limits.
