Description: A man's quest to find answers for those who are haunted by the past leads him deeper into the shadows in this electrifying novel from The New York Times best-selling author of Promise Not to Tell.
Quinton Zane is back.
Jack Lancaster, consultant to the FBI, has always been drawn to the coldest of cold cases, the kind that law enforcement either considers unsolvable or else has chalked up to accidents or suicides. As a survivor of a fire, he finds himself uniquely compelled by arson cases. His almost preternatural ability to get inside the killer's head has garnered him a reputation in some circles - and complicated his personal life. The more cases Jack solves, the closer he slips into the darkness. His only solace is Winter Meadows, a meditation therapist. After particularly grisly cases, Winter can lead Jack back to peace.
But as long as Quinton Zane is alive, Jack will not be at peace for long. Having solidified his position as the power behind the throne of his biological family's hedge fund, Zane sets out to get rid of Anson Salinas's foster sons, starting with Jack.
My Thoughts: The main characters of this finale to the Sons of Anson Salinas trilogy are Winter Meadows and Jack Lancaster. Jack has been a consultant to the FBI and an author. He is drawn to investigating cold cases especially those dealing with fire. He is also a lucid dreamer.
Winter Meadows is a skilled hypnotist who has been hired to held Jack deal with his nightmares. She has attracted a stalker.
Winter and Jack team up to defeat the stalker who has some links to Jack's old enemy Quinton Zane. Zane has decided to return to the United States but needs to get rid of Jack, his brothers, and their foster father before he can feel safe. Encouraging Winter's stalker is the start of his campaign.
Zane has also hired a couple of mercenaries to assist with his plans. They have their own agenda but killing Winter and Jack will fit in.
This was an engaging romance with some nice suspense. A character who appears in some of Krentz's other stories - Arizona Snow - makes an appearance in this one. Jack's psychic abilities and Winter's too are traits often seen in the author's books.
This was a nice conclusion to the trilogy.
