The bitter season
(Large Print)

"Minneapolis detective Nikki Liska, newly assigned to the cold case squad, misses the urgency of hunting killers on the loose. Most of all she misses her old partner, Sam Kovac. Kovac is having a hard time adjusting to Liska's absence, but is distracted from his troubles by the brutal double homicide of a university professor and his wife. Liska's case, the unsolved murder of a sex crimes detective, is less of a distraction. Meanwhile, Evi Burke has a life she only dreamed of as a kid in and out of foster homes. But a danger from her past is stalking her present. As the trails of two crimes a quarter-century apart cross, Kovac and Liska race to find answers." -- Page [4] of cover.
