A long time coming.

Lacey finds a lost little girl who they find out is tied to a infamous cold case. This leaves Lacey's family in danger while they try to navigate the investigation and track down the kidnappers. Lacey finds she has a hard time balancing her home life/work life and that leads to self-reflection. This mystery is full of plot twist and had me rooting for Lacey! I can't wait to see what happens next. The narrators did a great job bringing the characters to life and keeping me engaged. I'd suggest starting with book 1 in this series so you can appreciate how things unfold more fully.

I'm enjoying the series

I'm enjoying this series. Keeping me wanting more and wanting to know what is gonna happen next.

Fantastic addition to the series

This is a great story and series that features a strong willed female detective and the story is very well written and the narrator really brings the story alive

Great story! Full of emotions!

Hide Her is one of Chris Patchell's best books yet in this series! Yes, you must read the other books in the series to understand Hide Her. Do NOT read anymore of my review if you missed ANY of those books. While Officer James is looking for the family of a lost and scared little girl, she's reeling from the deceit of her husband Caleb. She's also off her game due to being 11 weeks pregnant by her cheating husband. As you can see, there's a lot going on here. This isn't an easy case. People pop out of the work-works here and you've got to keep your eyes open or you'll miss it!

The narration by Cassandra Medcalf and Nathan Agin was fabulous! Nathan played a few parts if I recall correctly. He's a solid male narrator with a strong deep voice. He works exceptionally well as a bad guy with that deep voice. It almost comes off sinister... I like it! Then we have Cassandra, she place Lacey James like they were meant to be. She's a strong heroine but she also has emotions and heart under that tough exterior. I could feel the emotions in Officer James throughout the story. These two narrators really brought the story together and made it a compulsive listen.

A perfect thriller. I couldn't start listening!

The Lacey James series just keeps getting better, and this fourth book is the best one yet, in my opinion. The plot was nail-biting and thrilling. It was so satisfying to continue Officer Lacey’s story. The author Chris Patchell writes so well that I feel like I know Lacey as well as I know myself. The narrator Cassandra Metcalf does such a perfect job bringing to life this small-town policewoman who is great at her job while taking care of her two kids. Lacey’s lovable work partner Eli also had a few memorable chapters from his perspective, narrated by the very talented Nathan Agin. Nathan Agin also narrates a couple of chapters from the perspective of a male perpetrator of a crime.

I hope there are many more books in this series, which is tied with one other for my favorite mystery series. I highly recommend this to everyone who likes realistic contemporary mysteries with female detectives.
