Elizabeth Goddard’s Cold Light of Day is an action-packed discovery of who done-it. Her Christian character Autumn Long, a police chief in a small, uneventful Alaskan town, enjoys the calm life, until strangers appear. 

While I am personally more a fan of character-development novels, Goddard’s snapshot during these few weeks in Autumn’s  life, is a good read. Autumn and her family’s pasts hold secrets that kept me turning the  pages of her novel. 

Grier, who has recently found his way into the small town, continues to show up when a crime has occurred. As an attractive and seemingly helpful man, Autumn has to wonder about his objectives and his past as well, which also compels the reader to keep flipping forward. 

Goddard does an impressive job of creating intrigue with her end-of-the-chapter cliffhangers, leaving me wanting to read just one more chapter. 

Enjoy this read into the intense season of Autumn Long’s life.
