Title: Heart of Ice
Author: Lis Wiehl with April Henry
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
Genre: Fiction
Heart of Ice is third novel in the Triple Threat series, which follows three fiercely intelligent women: Allison, a federal prosecutor, Nicole, an FBI agent and Cassidy, a TV journalist as they solve crimes.
Though this book features 3-4 sub plots to keep the story intriguing, the main story revolves around Elizabeth Avery, a sociopath who can go to any limit and beyond to get what she want. Elizabeth can easily manipulate anyone and get them to do what she wants, even murder.
The Triple Threat ladies have to stop her before the things gets way out of hand along dealing with issues in their personal lives as well. Allison is still mourning the loss of her unborn child and trying to work on her relationship with her sister, Nicole is diagnosed with breast cancer, and Cassidy is still trying to find her way to the top of her career and dealing with self-esteem issues.
If you have not read the previous novels, you might not develop a good connection with the three characters to grieve over their tragic personal lives. But once the series of killing event begins, you will find yourself dwelling in the pace; which makes it a good page-turner for new readers as well.
There is not much mystery in the novel as the reader knows since the beginning who is the killer. But unfolding of the events and unpredictable consequences marks it a breathtaking thriller.
Rating: 4/5
