Bree Nichols' whole life changed in an instant when the small plane her
husband and young son were traveling in disappears. Bree and her dog
Samson, members of a canine search-and-rescue team, have spent the past
year desperately combing the wilderness of Michigan's Upper Peninsula,
hoping to find the wreckage and gain closure. They run into one dead end
after another, until they stumble upon a woman's body.
The death of a prominent member of Rock Harbor stirs up the small town.
Bree believes the woman has been murdered, and she has a long list of
suspects in her friend's death, top among them are the woman's husband and
Kade Matthews, a park ranger who was in the area when the body was found.
But things don't add up. And Bree senses there's more to this murder than
meets the eye.
Somehow Bree must find it within herself to let go and give up her
relentless searches. She must look to the future and not the past. Just
when she thinks she's ready to move on, a remnant from the past stirs up
her hope again. But is it just another dead end?
Without A Trace, book one in the Rock Harbor series, packs a
wallop. It starts off running and doesn't slow. Colleen Coble's compelling
characters will play upon your emotions and hold your interest to the
final pages. My heart ached for Bree and all that she'd been through. But
in spite of everything she continued on, never giving in to her doubts and
fears. She's a wonderful heroine to cheer for.
The frigid climate of Michigan's Upper Peninsula comes alive with Ms.
Coble's vivid descriptions. The search-and-rescue drama is very realistic
and readers can tell Ms. Coble did her research well. Without A Trace
has a wide-range of characters who take the story in different directions,
and yet the storylines are intricately interwoven, and all things come
together in an exciting ending. Loaded with suspense, mystery,
page-turning action, and a compelling faith message, Without A Trace
is certain to take you on an emotional ride. This is a definite book for
your Keeper Shelf.
