No one does characters and dialog better than one of my favorite go-to authors. Nora Roberts and I have had a long, amazing relationship and HIDDEN NATURE is a perfect example of why that is.
Family traditions are front and center in this story. When their daughter Sloan gets severely injured during an armed robbery the family pulls together to help her manage the long recovery. No better place than at the family-owned and run mountain lodge. Here’s where Nora Roberts reminds us to smile through even bleak moments. Silly catchphrases that Sloan’s parents use let us see the way the family has always operated, as a well-oiled machine, topped off with tons of love. This will definitely conjure up memories of our childhood, which is the way this author takes her readers along for the adventure. HIDDEN NATURE is ripe with adventurous events, after all, it centers on the four-season lodge. But watch and see it unfold so much more thanks to its illustrious author Nora Roberts.
HIDDEN NATURE takes an abrupt turn. We enter the world of evil. God forsaken evil at its best and creepiest. Nora Roberts interrupts our smile-inducing memories of holidays with evil incarnate. Meant to take the smiles right off your face and replace them with grimaces. There is a force in the small community that has set its eyes on a certain group of folk. Very concise target. No easy explanation for their goal except twisted beyond belief. Ah, that word belief. What folks do in the name of resurrection. Do I have your attention yet?
Well in HIDDEN NATURE Nora Roberts introduces us to madness. Such a diabolical departure from the home, traditional, holiday world that it will cause your head to spin. The question is how did we get off course here? And that’s how this amazing author gets to the blood and guts core of HIDDEN NATURE. Fans of Nora Roberts are going to shake their collective heads. She did it again. It’s our mantra. So get ready for the ride of your life. Expect the unexpected. Characters jump off the page as we move onto a world that defies reality. Good versus evil. In HIDDEN NATURE you learn that some folks harbor a different view of justice and Sloan becomes totally engaged in ferreting out the culprit or culprits. HIDDEN NATURE is certainly a page-turner and keeps you at the edge of your seats all the way to the climax. So lean back and enjoy.
The #1 New York Times-bestselling author presents a novel about an injured cop who must fight to bring down a pair of twisted killers…
Natural Resources police officer, Sloan Cooper, and her partner had just taken down three men preying on hikers in the Western Maryland mountains. Driving back, she pulled in at a convenience store—and walked right into a robbery in progress. One gunshot from a jittery thief was about to change her world.
After being shocked back to life on the operating table, she has a long recovery ahead, so she moves back to her parents’ peaceful house in Heron’s Rest. As for the boyfriend who dumped her via text while she was in the hospital, good riddance.
She may be down, but she’s not out. So when a woman vanishes, leaving her car behind in a supermarket parking lot, Sloan searches online for similar cases. She finds them, spread across three states. Men and women, old and young—the missing seem to have nothing in common. And the abductions keep happening.
Luckily, the new man in her life shares her passion for solving this mystery. But it will take every ounce of endurance to get to the dark heart of this bizarre case—and she\'s willing to risk her life again if that\'s what it takes to stop the horror.
