Pinkerton Agent John McCall's task seemed easy--find a lost boy and return him to his grandparents back East. But he didn't count on the Nevada winter, or the trouble dogging the family caring for the boy, or the family themselves--particularly the child's feisty, woods-smart aunt Penny. When John and Penny are abducted together and then lost in the wilderness, they discover there's something more going on than meets the eye, and it's up to them to stop the ruthless man behind it all.I loved how both woods-smart Penny and city slicker detective John were both able to shine in their skills--first Penny getting them through the wilderness, and then John in investigating in the city (which I loved--he's in his element there, in ways I did not expect). They're each a little different from the average hero and heroine, which made for a fun switch, and they really compliment each other well. Once they agree to be on the same side, that is.
It's a lighthearted, fun conclusion to the series, full of traditional Connealy chaos. I'd recommend reading the first two books first, as it picks up immediately where the previous book left off.
Thank you Bethany House and Goodreads for the free book. I was not required to write a positive review, and all opinions are my own.
