The Ice Sisters

Detective Ellie Reeves, Book 10

By: Rita Herron

Narrated by: Tanya Eby

Shock slammed into her as she spotted the two little girls lying on the cold hard ground, snow swirling round their fragile bodies. Twins with button noses and heart-shaped faces, their pretty green eyes closed forever…

As the snow falls and a bitter wind blows, Detective Ellie Reeves is devastated to discover the bodies of two little girls, alone and frozen on an icy lake, in the isolated town of Cold Mountain. The girls are holding hands, with matching bows in their blonde curls, and when Ellie realizes they are twin sisters, her heart breaks for their mother, who must be desperately wondering where her little darlings are.

But, back at the police station, she is horrified to discover that nobody has reported the sisters missing. Are their parents in danger too? When an abandoned car is found near the girls’ bodies, and Ellie learns that the female driver is in hospital, she prays that the injured woman will know something about the twins.

A DNA test shows that the woman in hospital is the twins’ mother Barbara, and Ellie rushes to interview her. But when Ellie arrives at the hospital she is faced with an empty bed. Barbara has fled and her house is abandoned too. As Ellie searches the family home, she is chilled to see there is no sign of any children. If Barbara is the twins’ mother, where are the toys and photos of her precious girls?

When another little girl disappears, Ellie knows that finding Barbara might well be the key to saving an innocent child. But who is Barbara running from? Or does she have something to hide? And with the clock ticking and a fearsome winter storm brewing, can Ellie find the truth before another innocent life is lost?

This pulse-pounding and utterly addictive crime thriller will have you staying up way past your bedtime! Perfect for fans of Melinda Leigh, Lisa Regan and Kendra Elliot.

Good book series but not one of my favorite

This is a good book series but I really hate the ending on this one you spent 11 books with her involved with someone else and it just seems like the transition in this book is fake I did not like the ending at all

Ellie Reeves is a good series

Great book until the end. The performances of dairy and Ellie and other characters the women was great did not know who it was until the end. always been a fan of Derek and Ellie oh well

Now that's a unique plot!

I've listened to over 600 books on Audible and I can definitely say that this is a story line I've never heard before! I'm so invested in this series and can't wait for the next installment! 5 Stars!

Horrible

I knew there was a reason I haven’t listened to this series in a while and won’t listen to any new ones! Ugh! It was painful to listen to

Story

Was good, but the narrator is hard to ignore, truly annoying and way too dramatic. But if you like Ellie, it’s worth listening,
