Synopsis

A chilling new suspense novel in the critically acclaimed Louis Kincaid series! First Kincaid discovers he has a daughter he never knew. Then she leads him to fresh evidence in a decades-old murder case that threatens to claim new victims.

Detective Louis Kincaid cracks a murder case frozen in time in this new work of “crime fiction at its finest” (Lee Child) from bestselling author P. J. Parrish.

Florida PI Louis Kincaid wants to wear a badge again. But before he can, he must return home to Michigan— and some unfinished business. He hopes to bond with ten-year-old Lily, the daughter he only recently learned existed, and reunite with girlfriend Joe Frye. But new clues to an unsolved murder put his plans on ice. A trip with Lily to enchanting Mackinac Island turns grim when the child falls on a pile of old bones; the dangerous discovery reopens the cold case of Julie Chapman, a teenager from one of the wealthy summer families, who vanished two decades ago. And when Louis is forced to cooperate with a tough state investigator who once worked with Joe, tensions skyrocket. Now, what was supposed to be a time of building lasting ties splinters into disturbing fragments, personally and professionally, as Louis pursues a mystery entangled in dark family secrets and twists even he can’t predict.

Review

HEART OF ICE may well be the best addition in the Kincaid series to date; certainly it will be included in many year-end lists. --Joe Hartlaub, BOOKREPORTER.COM. Read entire review:  bookreporter.com/reviews/heart-of-ice-a-louis-kincaid-novel

A gripping plot seamlessly melds with a very personal look at a man at the crossroads of his life and a family wracked by secrets and lies in the excellent "Heart of Ice." --Oline Cogdill, South Florida Sun-Sentinal.

"Absolutely gut-wrenching and I loved every single page. The PJ Parrish team are two of the best writers in the business, and this book is clearly their best yet." -- Steve Hamilton, two-time Edgar Award-winning author of Die A Stranger
