Picked this up on a lark while on vacation in NH, as I was looking for some reading material on a rainy day and this, and other novels by D. C. Monahan, was on a promotional stand in a local store. Being a local author I was a bit dubious at first but ended up really enjoying this book. It was so good, in fact, that I finished reading it before my vacation ended. It was also so good I bought another one ("Bear Game") by this author for further reading. Giving it a 4 only because there were some times where I got confused by the story line, but otherwise I'd recommentd it. It kep me in suspense!

I stopped at a small store while driving through Bethlehem in New Hampshire, and inside was a small display shelf with some books by local authors D. and C. Monahan. I picked up a book with the simple intent of lending support to a local independent author. I’m glad I did, because Cold Days turned out to be a surprisingly entertaining read indeed.
I struggled a bit at the beginning, as I tried to make sense of which characters were which and what the book’s direction was, but in time my patience was rewarded with a story that moved with good pace, featured interesting characters, had enough mystery to keep the reader intrigued, and built nicely toward an exciting climax. It was also, at times, quite poignant. David and Cheryl Monahan write clear, crisp prose, and their descriptions of winter in small town New Hampshire could only have been written by people who live, work, and play there.
