Resumen del Editor

#1 New York Times Bestselling author Tami Hoag returns to the bestselling series of her career with a Kovac and Liska case that will delight fans and new listeners alike.

A murder from the past. A murder from the present. And a life that was never meant to be....

As the dreary, bitter weather of late fall descends on Minneapolis, Detective Nikki Liska is restless. After moving to the cold case squad in order to spend more time with her sons, she misses the rush of pulling an all-nighter, the sense of urgency of hunting a murderer on the loose. Most of all she misses her old partner, Sam Kovac. Sam is having an even harder time adjusting to Nikki's absence, saddled with a green new partner younger than pieces of Sam's wardrobe. Sam is distracted from his troubles by an especially brutal double homicide: a middle-aged husband and wife bludgeoned and hacked to death in their home with a ceremonial Japanese samurai sword. Nikki's case, the unsolved murder of a family man, community leader, and decorated sex crimes detective for the Minneapolis PD, is less of a distraction: twenty years later, there is little hope for finding the killer who got away.

On the other end of the spectrum, Minneapolis resident Evi Burke has a life she only dreamed of as a kid in and out of foster homes: a beautiful home, a family, people who love her, a fulfilling job. Little does she know that a danger from her past is stalking her perfect present. A danger powerful enough to pull in both Kovac and Liska and destroy the perfect life she was never meant to have.

Love the series.

Exciting to the last paragraph.

Tami Hoag has written a very good novel, full of suspense and unexpected twists and turns. The ending is totally unexpected. A very good read.

Her books just get better and better!

One of the few female authors I listen to.
Also, the narrator did a great job!

several sit in my car moments!

One way I judge a book is how many times am I sitting in my car listening to the book even after I have reached my destination. this was so suspense and engaging. just enough twists and turns, but no 'cheap' plot twists.

Tami Hoag NEVER disappoints

I’ll read anything she releases, because she presents just as many flawed characters as she understands the impact of early childhood trauma in adults.
She weaves the story to tantalize us to quickly turn the page, or listen to just one more chapter, I often complete her works in one day.

Great Story, Terrific Narration

The Bitter Season follows detectives Kovac and Liska after their Ninth Girl case when Liska grew concerned that her demanding job on the homicide squad did not leave her enough time or energy to properly care for her growing sons. In The Bitter Season, she has transferred to the cold case squad and is immediately thrust into trying to solve a 25 year old cold case murder. It is a tight and complex story with unique characters. The ending packs a wallop. As usual, David Colacci is the perfect narrator, evoking the personalities of all the characters with his amazing voice and interpretation.

Suspense

The entire book was a masterpiece of suspense. It was great and hated to see it end.

On point. As usual Tami!

Keep them coming! I love these books... And as someone from Wisconsin, the narration is pretty much on point... so get over it people
