Detective Tracy Crosswhite has moved to the Cold Case Unit after returning from extended leave to find her Captain has filled her position at Violent Crimes with someone else. Sifting through the binders of cold cases, one case captures her interest. Five-year-old Elle Chin disappeared from a corn maze one night while with her father. Both parents were investigated. Both blame each other. The police have no leads. Tracy decides to take a run at this case to see if she can find out what happened to Elle.

Meanwhile, Tracy's former partner Detective Kinsington Rowe asks for her help on a missing persons case. Stephanie Cole went jogging two days ago and hasn't been seen since. Her car was found near a local park, but there is no sign of what happened to her.

This is the 8th book in the Tracy Crosswhite series. I was immediately drawn to the Elle Chin case. The parents were in a contentious divorce which left their daughter way down on the list of things they should be worried about. I wasn't sure what happened to the little girl, but this story kept my attention. The investigation into the missing jogger was a little different. We were told who was behind the abduction and had to see how Tracy and Kinz would figure out this mystery. I was pleasantly surprised by the twist in this story that I didn't see coming.

Overall, a very good entry into the series. My rating: 4.5 Stars.
