Thin Ice by Irene Hannon is the second book in the Men of Valor series. Christy Reed lives in St. Louis, Missouri and she is the Director of Youth Programs for a municipal recreation program in St Louis County. Christy is going to visit her sister, Ginny (a wildlife biologist). Christy has not been able to reach her and is worried. As she approaches her sister's house she notices a police officer blocking the road. Her sister's house in on fire. The fire progresses quickly and no one escaped. Christy had lost her parents just eight months prior in a car accident. Christy no longer has any family left. Two months later Christy receives a letter in her sister's handwriting. Ginny states that she has been kidnapped. Christy is shocked. Christy calls the FBI and reaches Lance McGregor (a brand new FBI Agent). Christy and Lance will need to work together to locate Ginny.
Thin Ice is a good suspense novel, but it was not great. I felt that the author tried to put too much into one book (Lance's injured brother, another brother and his lady friend, Lance's guilty conscience over an incident that happened oversees). I only gave you a summary of the main part of the story. And why does every book have to have a romance? Is it really necessary. The one thing that really turned me off in this book was the killer torturing mice and animals. The descriptions were just awful (and upsetting for an animal lover). I give Thin Ice 4 out of 5 stars. Thin Ice is nicely written and it had a pretty good flow. Thin Ice, though, is a disturbing book (be prepared). I think with a little editing, Thin Ice would be a great book. Though Thin Ice is part of a series, it can be read as a stand-alone (I did not read the first book in the series).
I received a complimentary copy of Thin Ice from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
