8.26.2020 - The Silence

The Silence (Columbia River #2, Callahan & McLane, #5)

Many thanks to NetGalley, Montlake, and Kendra Elliot for the opportunity to read her latest thriller - I loved getting back into these characters' lives but they are written so well that you don't need to have read the first book in this series to enjoy.  There are many returning characters from many of Elliot's books which is always fun.  4.5 stars rounded up because I love these characters!

Detective Mason Callahan and his partner, Ray, find a man brutally murdered and evidence at the scene leads them to a possible bomb threat at the nearby courthouse.  The evidence also mentions Mason's fiancee, FBI agent Ava McLane, so Mason is doubly worried.  Ava is investigating the shootings of multiple police officers and finds that Mason's investigation intertwines with her own.  When Ava's troubled twin sister disappears, there are too many coincidences to believe that all these crimes are anything but personal.

A quick read and one that was hard to put down as the story built to its conclusion.  I loved all the emotions and relationships between the characters even in the midst of murder and mayhem.
