Sophie Rose once worked at a big Chicago newspaper. But when they wanted her to write an expose on her father, notorious thief Bobby Rose, she quit her job and went to work for a small newspaper. Sophie has been assigned to do a story on William Harrington, an arrogant winner of twenty-four 5K races. William believes his next race will be front page news; and asks Sophie to take his picture at the race. But when the race starts, Sophie can't find him. A few days later Sophie receives a call from the police in Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. They found her business card on the body of William Harrington. What was he doing in Alaska? Sophie senses there may be a big story behind Harrington's sudden disappearance and subsequent death by polar bear in Alaska. As she gathers information, someone tries to kill her. FBI Agent Jack MacKenzie is assigned as her protection.
This is the seventh book in Garwood's Buchanan-Renard series. Each book seems to be following the same pattern. A hot and charismatic law enforcement hero. The smart and beautiful heroine. A mystery that threatens the heroine's life and gives the hero a reason to protect her. The mystery seems to be solved at the 80% mark of the book, but we know the heroine is still in danger. Finally, the killer has been caught and everyone lives happily-ever-after.
I liked the plot of this one and I thought the suspense was exciting. I loved the Alaska setting when Sophie and Jack go in search of information about Harrington's death. And though I liked both Sophie and Jack, I thought their romance was lacking. There didn't seem to be much chemistry between them. My rating: 4 Stars.
