Twenty years ago, several people were murdered in Des Moines, and the only evidence left behind was a snowman ornament hanging on a tree on their front lawns. With a suspect behind bars, the killings have come to an end--or so everyone thought. But now crimes with a similar MO are happening in a small Iowa town, and a local detective believes the killer is back and ready to strike again.
With little time on the clock before they have another murder on their hands, private investigators River Ryland and Tony St. Clair must work alongside Tony's father to find evidence that will uncover an evil that has survived for far too long. As the danger mounts and the suspect closes in, it will take all they have to catch a killer--before he catches one of them.
USA Today bestselling author Nancy Mehl continues her explosive new FBI profiler series with an intense story of revenge and redemption.

MY THOUGHTS.....
River and Tony are back, and I couldn't be happier! Private investigators River Ryland and Tony St. Clair are quite a team but this time they're dealing with evil personified---a serial killer who leaves a snowman as a calling card! This killer is cold, calculating, and certainly a cold threat!
I'm always eager to read a new Nancy Mehl story and this book is no exception! Her characters are always memorable but they're never cookie-cutter. They may be noble but they're also fallible and when they are bad...they're truly bad! Somehow, even in the madness, Mehl shows God's goodness and the forgiveness that we achieve by looking to HIs light. I can always count on a relevant faith thread being woven into her exciting plots.
If you're looking for a captivating thriller with romance and a powerful faith message, grab a copy of this book. Cold Threat kept me turning the pages and the teaser at the end left me wanting more of Ryland and St. Clair!
