Cold, Cold Heart by Tami Hoag

In this latest entry by a prolific author, Dana Nolan, an up and coming television reporter, experiences a horrific act.  She spends much time recuperating in the hospital and a rehabilitation center and eventually decides to return to her hometown.

Her arrival sparks the interest of the media along with an unsolved case involving a childhood friend. Dana decides to explore the events leading up to the disappearance of her best friend and in pursuing this line of interest stirs up somethings she might be safer leaving alone.

The story is told through the eyes of a survivor who must work with the overt disabilities she has incurred, as well as suffering with PTSD.  A consumate writer, the author keeps the reader guessing as to who is the perpetrator of the long ago incident and it is not truly revealed until the last few chapters.

Be sure to read the authors note at the end of the book.  It is both enlightening and interesting.
