Cry in the Night


Cry in the Night by Colleen Coble is the author's return to her popular Rock Harbor series that takes place in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Bree Matthews' life is starting to take on some normalcy with her marriage to game wardenKade and his pending adoption of her son Davy. The one thing that could make her life complete is a baby, and that wish seems to come true when Bree's search dog Samson discovers a baby girl hidden in the woods. But the city of Rock Harbor is quickly shaken by two murders and several missing Native American babies. Bree's search to find some answers about this baby girl may resurrect ghosts she's thought were long gone from her past. This suspense novel is chock full of thrills and chills. While the writing is sometimes a bit shaky, I barely had time to notice. The plot rockets along page after page with one shocking revelation after another. The disconnected plots come together explosively.Coble does a wonderful job of capturing the real UP with the fierce weather, Scandinavian influences, and dialect, eh. It's a terrific read perfect that will keep you up late at night and jumping at every night time sound.
