"Fatal Frost"
by Nancy Mehl
by Nancy Mehl
Mercy Brennan followed in her father's footsteps in a law enforcement career, but she has no interest in any other connection to him. A U.S. Marshal in St. Louis, Missouri, she's assigned to a joint task force with the St. Louis PD that puts her back into contact with her father and in the sights of St. Louis's most powerful gang.
When the gang has reason to believe Mercy has possession of some highly sensitive and incriminating information, her boss assigns Mark St. Laurent--a Deputy U.S. Marshal and Mercy's ex-boyfriend--to get her out of town until they can guarantee her safety.
Initially unaware of the danger she's in and uncomfortable working with Mark, Mercy's frustration escalates when she discovers the extent her boss and Mark have been keeping her in the dark. It isn't until a freak ice storm hits, stranding them at a remote location and out of contact with the district office, that the full severity of their situation becomes clear. As the storm worsens, the forces of nature combine with a deadly enemy closing in to put their lives at imminent risk. Can they survive long enough for help to arrive--if help is even coming at all?

“Fatal Frost” kept me on the edge of my seat from the very first page until the last. I could not put the book down as I was drawn into the story and could not wait to find out what would happen. The story is very fast-paced and filled with lots of action, excitement, and intrigue. The many twists and turns that the story takes had me feeling both anxious and slightly frustrated. (Not frustrated with the author’s work by any means, but frustrated that the drug cartel had taken over events once again. I am sure you will see what I mean when you read the book.) Nancy Mehl did an excellent job approaching a very sensitive topic in our country today…that of the mistreatment of police officers. I felt like she handled this topic and story very well, and for that I am grateful as I lost a family member who was a police officer in the line of duty. If you like a good, clean, action filled story then this book is definitely for you.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher. No review positive or negative was required. All opinions are my own.
