Thin Ice by Irene Hannon

If Ginny Reed is still alive--who is the woman buried in her grave?

After losing her parents and her sister, Christy Reed has been mired in grief. Now, life is finally starting to feel normal again--until an envelope addressed in her sister's handwriting arrives in the mail. And the note inside claims she is still alive.

FBI Special Agent Lance McGregor, a former Delta Force operator, is assigned to reopen the case . . . but he's coming up with more questions than answers. Is Christy a pawn in a twisted cat-and-mouse game--or the target of a sinister plot? As Lance digs deeper, one thing becomes clear: someone in the shadows has a deadly agenda.

As with all of Irene Hannon’s books, I enjoyed this book.  Lance is a newbie FBI agent on his first case.  I would have thought that for his first case he would have been assigned a partner.  But I don’t really know how the FBI works.  Just what I see on TV.  There were parts of the story where he acted more like a seasoned agent but overall he asks for help when needed.  He also had to keep reminding himself there were more rules to follow that when he was in Delta Force.  Christy’s character had a real strong personality.  As a former Olympic contender, she has had years of training and self discipline.  When she received a letter in her sister’s handwriting she didn’t bow to the request to not go to the police. 

As with most suspense/romance books, it seems the heroine and hero meet and instantly feel a connection with each other and in a matter of weeks are in love.  All this being said I did enjoy the book.  It’s not an edge of your seat suspense novel.  More of what I would call a mystery. I would recommend this book to anyone.

I was given this book by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.  I was not compensated in any way.
