Cold Light of Day
by Elizabeth Goddard
February 20 - March 17, 2023 Virtual Book Tour
Police Chief Autumn Long is fighting to keep her job in the quiet Alaska town of Shadow Gap when an unexpected string of criminal activity leaves her with a wounded officer, unexplained murders, and even an attack on her own father. Despite her mistrust of outsiders, she turns to Grier Brenner, a newcomer who seems to have the skills and training Autumn needs to face this threat to her community.
Grier is in Alaska for the same reason so many others are--to disappear--when Chief Long enlists his help. He emerges from the shadows and proves his mettle, but his presence in her life could be a deadly trap for them both. If his secret is exposed, all will be lost. And he's not sure even Autumn could save him.
As the stakes rise and the dangers increase, Autumn and Grier must rely on each other to extinguish the deadly threats.

"Elizabeth Goddard has created a novel that immerses the reader in small-town Alaska. From the first page, it's a race to stay alive and solve a number of ever-spiraling mysteries. I highly recommend this novel."
-Cara Putman, award-winning author of Flight Risk and Lethal Intent
"A simmering romantic suspense with an explosive ending. Once more Goddard proves she is a master storyteller and deserving of her place as one of the best Christian romantic suspense authors of our time."

My Thoughts:
Elizabeth Goddard is a master-woman of bringing a small town on a thrill ride of any reader's life. You'll feel that tingly feeling deep in your veins over the body count and methods of deceit.
Autumn's character is well-written and completely realistic in her reactions to the chain of events. I loved how her past was unfolded before us in bits and pieces, the scenes bringing a mountain of emotions for everything she's overcome. Grier is such a phenomenal hero and adds a new layer of depth to their relationship beyond romantic. As for the secondary characters, I'm amazed at how much Goddard could make you feel for people without having a lot of information on them. Like a puzzle piece, each one pulls the main picture together.
As soon as you get a few pages in, you'll want to clear your schedule for the rest of the day because this book is all-consuming! The suspense keeps you on your toes and the romance is soft - like a breeze that shows up at precisely the right moments. Even with all of the atrocious activity going on, this is a place I could see myself wanting to escape to as well. I couldn't put this down and absolutely can't wait for the next book!
I received a complimentary copy for reviewing purposes. All opinions are my own.
