Publisher’s Synopsis:
Ten years after a terrifying kidnapping ended in murder, can rookie FBI Agent Thomas Kamea unearth new clues and finally nail the killer?
Every cop has a case they can’t let go of. The Nash case is rookie FBI agent Thomas Kamea’s. Now that he’s a federal agent, maybe their resources plus the advances in technology will help him bring the murderer to justice.
Maybe then Cedric Nash’s lifeless eyes will stop haunting his nightmares.
But little does Thomas know that the Nash case is a hornet’s nest, and he’s just kicked it wide open. Will Thomas be able to stay one step ahead of the crafty killer and bring this case to justice? Or will the killer succeed at staying in the shadows forever?
Point of view:
3rd person.
Rellim’s Thoughts:
I like that Waeschle was able to pack so much into this short story. As a newly minted FBI agent, Thomas Kamea wants to revisit a cold case from his time with Honolulu PD. This offers a little bit of everything: procedural, mystery, & suspense. I wish some of the minor loose ends would have been tied up better, but the length concentrated on the main points well.
Narration:
My first listen narrated by Rob Brinkmann and I enjoyed his performance. He does a good job giving distinct character voices and adding to the anticipation/suspense aspect of the writing.
