Mystery Woman Sleuth

Detective Meg Thorne, haunted by the years of cold cases she could not solve, retires early, in her 50s, feeling stifled by the limits of the law and determined to do whatever she has to to solve them on her own, stop these killers, and rescue any victims. Outside of the red tape, she will be free to cross all lines, and do whatever must be done—as long as she doesn't find herself, alone, in a killer's sights...

When a cold case heats up with the possible return of the "Riverside Strangler," Meg Thorne must navigate a tangle of past lies and fresh victims to catch a killer who slipped through the system. Can she right the mistakes that shattered past careers to stop history from repeating itself?

NEXT CHANCE is BOOK #5 in a new series by #1 bestselling mystery and suspense author Kate Bold, whose bestseller NOT ME (a free download) has received over 3,000 five star ratings and reviews. The series begins with NEXT GIRL (BOOK #1).

The Meg Thorne series delivers an exhilarating rush with non-stop action, gripping suspense, and enigmatic puzzles that will keep you captivated well past bedtime, featuring a compelling protagonist eager to decipher the mystery.
