review: stone cold heart by laura griffin

This post contains affiliate links.

When bones are found by rock climbers in a remote area, the Springville police call the Delphi Center for assistance. As a forensic anthropologist, Sara Lockhart is the one who heads up the recovery of the bones while Detective Nolan Hess takes the lead on the criminal investigation. Although the bones are the right gender and age, they are not a match for the missing woman Springville police have been searching for. Soon Sara and Nolan realize there's a serial killer in the area and Sara gets a little too close for comfort.

As one might expect from the 13th novel in the Tracers series from Laura Griffin, there's a lot of suspense as Sara and Nolan work to discover the identity of the serial killer. It's a well laid out plot where every bit is important—there are no unnecessary details here! The romance is a little flat though. Sara and Nolan just didn't seem to click as anything more than investigators, but there they were jumping into bed despite both having reservations. And when they reached what served as the turning point, it just didn't seem like Sara, who was set up as fiercely independent, would be interested in taking that relationship step in that moment.
4/5
