Publisher's Summary

The gripping third book in the internationally acclaimed series by New York Times bestselling author Robert Dugoni.

Detective Tracy Crosswhite has a skill, and a soft spot, for tackling unsolved crimes. Having lost her own sister to murder at a young age, Tracy has dedicated her career to bringing justice and closure to the families and friends of victims of crime.

So when Jenny, a former police academy classmate and protégé, asks Tracy to help solve a cold case that involves the suspicious suicide of a Native American high school girl forty years earlier, Tracy agrees. Following up on evidence Jenny’s detective father collected when he was the investigating deputy, Tracy probes one small town’s memory and finds dark, well-concealed secrets hidden within the community’s fabric. Can Tracy uphold the promise she’s made to the dead girl’s family and deliver the truth of what happened to their daughter? Or will she become the next victim?

Getting to know the characters

I thoroughly enjoyed this, the 3rd book in the series. I feel like I'm getting to know the characters, particularly the lead character, Tracy Crosswhite. Intelligently written, and well narrated once again.
Towards the end of the book, the thought occurred to me that while there had been some emotional moments in the 3 books thus far, nothing had really moved me. Without wishing to lay a spoiler here, suffice to say that changed in the final chapters of this story.
Highly recommended, and as I write this I'm downloading book 4. I think that speaks for the series.

The Clearing

An enthralling cold case that is a bit close to home for Tracy. As it brings back memories of her sister’s case will it be too much for her? An interesting and engaging story with a lot of side stories the teader is slowly brought to an exciting conclusion. As to Tracy’s romance with Dan....we definitely need to know more.

Book 3. Another great story

In thr Clearing is book 3 for the Tracy Crosswhite stories and it didn't disappoint.

Tracy is asked to look into a 40 year cold case of the death of a 17yo native American girl and as she investigates the circumstances surrounding her death she finds just how much this gig death has affected some of her fellow high school students.

I love listening yo Tracy Crosswhite and think Emily Sutton-Smith is the perfect narrator for this series. will there be another?? I hope so. I want to hear more about Tracy and Dan.
