My review:

Cold Light of Day is an excellent start to Elizabeth Goddard's newest series, Missing in Alaska

Secrets.

Lies.

Betrayal.

Redemption?

Only a fiery woman with odd eyes could bring him out of his hole and that's exactly what was happening now.

I love that Autumn Long is the police chief in Shadow Gap, Alaska. Like any woman in her position, she faces opposition. Some are obvious, while at other times, it is hard to know where the threat comes from.

Family secrets could shatter a person. 

Grier Brenner is in Alaska to hide. He has no plans to get involved in anything. Unfortunately, he has a difficult time saying no to Chief Long. 

From the beautiful Alaskan setting, the constant suspense, the potential romance between Autumn and Grier, and a few twists, you will be spellbound until the final page! I am already looking forward to the next book in the series.

Thank you to Revell for the opportunity to read this book. I was not required to provide a positive review. All thoughts and opinions are my own. 

★★★★/5

Synopsis (Goodreads): 

Police Chief Autumn Long is fighting to keep her job in the quiet Alaska town of Shadow Gap when an unexpected string of criminal activity leaves her with a wounded officer, unexplained murders, and even an attack on her own father. Despite her mistrust of outsiders, she turns to Grier Brenner, a newcomer who seems to have the skills and training Autumn needs to face this threat to her community.

Grier is in Alaska for the same reason so many others are--to disappear--when Chief Long enlists his help. He emerges from the shadows and proves his mettle, but his presence in her life could be a deadly trap for them both. If his secret is exposed, all will be lost. And he's not sure even Autumn could save him.

As the stakes rise and the dangers increase, Autumn and Grier must rely on each other to extinguish the deadly threats.
