New York Times bestselling author Kelley Armstrong returns to Haven\u2019s Rock in Cold as Hell as Casey Butler hunts down a dangerous killer during a deadly blizzard.<\/p>\n

Haven\u2019s Rock is a sanctuary town hidden deep in the Yukon for those who need to disappear from the regular world. Detective Casey Duncan and her husband, Sheriff Eric Dalton, are starting a family now that they\u2019ve settled into their life here. As Casey nears the end of her pregnancy, she lets nothing, including her worried husband, stop her from investigating what happens in the forbidden forest outside the town of Haven\u2019s Rock.<\/p>\n

When one of the town’s residents is drugged and wanders too close to the edge of town, she\u2019s dragged into the woods kicking and screaming. She\u2019s saved in the nick of time, but the women of the town are alarmed. Casey and Eric investigate the assault just as a snowstorm hits Haven\u2019s Rock, covering the forest. It\u2019s there they find a frozen body, naked in the snow. With mixed accounts of the woman’s last movements, the two begin to question who they can trust\u2014and who they can’t\u2014in their seemingly safe haven.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Haven\u2019s Rock series is a spinoff of her Rockton series featuring Detective Casey Duncan. While each book offers a standalone mystery, I recommend reading the series in order.<\/p>\n

Set in a remote location, the town of Haven\u2019s Rock lives entirely off the grid. The town is hidden deep in the Yukon and offers sanctuary for its residents. Until one of the woman is attacked and dragged into the woods before being rescued.<\/p>\n

A riveting mystery and relationship growth had me flipping the pages late into the night. Armstrong is a favorite author of mine, and she created a good mystery with plenty of suspense, suspects, and twists. All the residents have secrets, some Casey and Eric know others are \u2013 need to know.<\/p>\n

The climate of their remote town is almost a character in itself with winter blizzards, dangers in the surrounding forest and their isolation from society. The police team comprises three and they will all need to work together as a suspect becomes clear, but doubts are raised. When a second victim is found, it becomes clear they are dealing with something darker.<\/p>\n

Casey\u2019s pregnancy adds another complication. She is due any day, and April is concerned. She wants Casey to travel down the mountain to deliver. Weather and Casey\u2019s own stubbornness have Eric pulling out his hair. I love seeing their relationship evolve and having the townsfolk come to their aid.<\/p>\n

Cold As Hell<\/em> was a gripping edition to the Haven\u2019s Rock mystery series. I am not sure I will ever grow tired of these characters and cases they tackle.<\/p>\n

About Kelley Armstrong<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Kelley Armstrong has been telling stories since before she could write. Her earliest written efforts were disastrous. If asked for a story about girls and dolls, hers would invariably feature undead girls and evil dolls, much to her teachers’ dismay. All efforts to make her produce “normal” stories failed. Today, she continues to spin tales of ghosts and demons and werewolves, while safely locked away in her basement writing dungeon. She’s the author of the NYT-bestselling “Women of the Otherworld” paranormal suspense series and “Darkest Powers” young adult urban fantasy trilogy, as well as the Nadia Stafford crime series. Armstrong lives in southwestern Ontario with her husband, kids and far too many pets. <\/p>\n
