Unfortunately, this wasn't really my cup of tea. The book was a bit dark for me but I'm sure would be appreciated by folks who enjoy the thriller genre.

I had to force myself to finish this book! I got a free copy through Netgalley in return for an honest review. I think there were too many characters and story lines to truly tell one good story. It had a good premise but not total package.

Cold girl by rm greenway.
A popular singer vanishes. Lead rcmp investigator david leith and his team work through the possibilities. Has she been snatched by the so-called pickup killer, or does the answer lie in the community, somewhere among her fans and friends. An enjoyable read. I had my suspicions so I couldn't put it down. I had to find out if I was right. I liked the ending too. 5*. Netgalley and dundurn.

Thanks to net galley.com, R.M. Greenaway and Dundum publishing for the advance ARC for my honest review.

Cold Girl is a police procedural, that takes place in British Columbia, Canada and involves the RCMP. Greenaway starts it with a bang, with Constable Dion and his girlfriend Penny at a local fair, watching the band Fling preform and the music tie in was why I decide to read the book.

Then Dion witnesses a stalker, after he keeps looking at a Native girl and watching her leave he realize that someone in a red cap following her.

You learn about the horrific wreck Constable Dion was in, his recovery, the loss of his partner, you realize also that he has memory problems and once you start reading, you realize he probably should be working yet.

Chapter 1 turns into a hot mess were the reader needs a score card to keep track of all the Police Officer names. Then Detective Constable Leith and Detective Sergeant Bosko driving out to the Hazleton's, due to Fling's lead singer Keira Rilkoff is missing but yet we have to slog through the car ride these two have and Leith really doesn't want him riding with him.

I'm sitting their at work, bummed that Cold Girl being a Police Procedural, is going no where fast, the over descriptiveness by Greenaway killed it for me and then I just totally lost interest in the story.

An intriguing start to a new mystery series, special to me because I know the setting so well. However, I found the characters unrealistic and their inner monologues tiresome. I still think this will be a great series if it continues.
