Six months ago, Rourke Kincaid failed to follow procedure and a
civilian almost died. He was pulled from
active duty; eventually assigned to cold cases.
After reviewing several files, U.S. Marshal Rourke Kincaid notices a
serial killer pattern in the files; Beartooth, Montana waitress Callie
Westfield was photographed at various Sweetgrass County crime scenes. He wonders why she keeps showing up but instead
of supporting his premise, his supervisor suspends him again.
Unauthorized Rourke goes rogue and in Seattle meets with his medically
retired former SPD partner Laura Fuller to illicit her help. Laura hopes he came to see her to tell her he
loves her like she does him; but instead he asks her to assist him on a serial
killer case in Beartooth. In the Montana
town, undercover Rourke meets Callie at the Branding Iron Café where she
works. However, as the evidence mounts
that Callie is a cold-blooded murderess, mortified Rourke knows he fell in love
with a serial killer.
The fifth Beartooth Mountains thriller (see Atonement, Unforgiven,
Forsaken and Redemption) is a pleasing Big Sky romantic suspense. Although readers will solve the case much
earlier than Rourke does, Mercy is a fast-paced, action-packed murder mystery.
