Book description
The Chill of Night is James Hayman's second instalment in his
McCabe and Savage series.
A frozen corpse means a big headache for Detective Michael McCabe
Lainie Goff thinks she has it all. A glamorous young Portland
attorney with the brains and looks to match her ambitions, she's on
the fast-track to a partnership. Until one cold winter night she
discovers that her belief in her ability to handle any situation was
misplaced. Now she's just a frozen corpse in the boot of a car at the
end of Portland Fish Pier.
And a problem for homicide detective Michael McCabe.
Luckily for McCabe, there's a witness. A mentally disturbed young
woman named Abby Quinn saw what happened to Lainie. Unfortunately,
Abby mysteriously goes missing the very same night. With a victim
who'd known more than her share of bad guys, a list of suspects that
seems to get longer and longer and his only witness missing, McCabe
has got his work cut out.
But it's only a matter of time before the killer strikes again . . .
Following the success of the first instalment The Cutting,
The Chill of Night continues to follow Detective McCabe as he
solves Portland's crimes. Fans of Harlan Coben and Michael Connelly
will be hooked.
