Cold Hunt is the second book in the Ellie Kline series by Mary Stone and Donna Berdel. This is an amazing new series and a real spine chilling thriller. I was hooked from the beginning and couldn’t put this book down. This thriller is intense and full of suspense, even the interaction between characters is intense. Get ready for a true nail-biting, page turning experience because you won’t know the good guys from the bad.
Ellie is still working the cold case files while also searching for clues to her own unsolved kidnapping when she was a young teenager. Her friend and co-worker, Jillian is becoming more of a investigative detective than the file clerk. She has a nack for seeing how the pieces fit together.
The ending is another cliffhanger leaving you on pins and needles waiting to find out what comes next. I am an ARC member and this is my honest review.
Mary and Donna, you two rock as team writers. Now you won’t be able to stop until all the Cold Cases are solved.
“COLD HUNT” by Mary Stone and Donna Berdel continues the saga of Ellie Kline and the Charleston Police Department. When Ellie looks into a case that her boss Detective Fortis wants her to investigate, it is more than a simple murder that has gone cold. Ellie starts looking into the disappearance of a young girl that somehow gets connected to this unsolved murder. This involves the police IT department looking into the “Dark Web” and finding all kinds of unspeakable crimes including the kidnapping of Ellie when she was a young teenager. This video appears to answer several questions Ellie has been asking herself, but it also opens up more questions. Like how was her abduction connected to this case? Why did the investigating officer lie on his official reports? Why did he just seemingly walk away these cases, marking them “UNSOLVED” and move on to another case? Read “COLD HUNT” to see how Detective Ellie Kline works to solve this latest cold case given to her and the missing person case that she found that had NOT been documented or assigned.
The second book in the Series Ellie Kline Cold Hunt by Mary Stone and Donna Berdel this book starts off where it end book one. Elli & Jillian seeking those responsible for Murder of Their Cold Case.

A psychological thriller with heart pumping, nail-biting, and spine-tingling action. Just when you think you know what is going on in comes another twist and turn. Provocative characters that keep you guessing. Non stop action. Storyline moves quickly and you can’t put the book down. I received ARC copy and this is my honest opinion.
