Ryan and Elsie Delaney have taken desperate measures by taking those working in a LAPD forensic lab hostage. They want the LAPD to find their missing daughter, Tilly, and have given them the ultimatum to find their daughter or they will destroy evidence that could solve cold cases. Tilly has been missing for 2 years and they want answers.

Detective Charlie Hoskins had been undercover with a motorcycle gang for five years, but his cover had been blown. Lynette Lamb was fired the day before and wants to find Tilly hoping this will get her job back. Hoskins and Lamb team up to find Tilly and free the hostages.

One of the pluses of this book was the banter between Hoskins and Lamb. I enjoyed their scenes and dialogue. Lamb is the new kid on the block and Hoskins has been around the block a few times. I liked the blending of experience and novice. Each brings something to the table.

This book does have plenty of things and action happening, but nothing feels confusing or too much. There is a solid mystery and time is of the essence.

Thank you to Macmillan Audio and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own.
