Shelter in Place
Nora Roberts
One
summer evening in Portland, Maine, the unthinkable happened. Gunmen
opened fire in a shopping mall. In an instant, many were dead, and
those who survived were traumatized and haunted by the incident. Some
of the survivors connected with each other and attempted to go on
with their lives, but others felt they had a mission to find out
more. Why did it happen, and who was really behind the violence.
Essie McVee is one of them. She was the first police officer on the
scene, and she can't put the event behind her. Reed Quartermaine is a
young man who helped others, and this would lead him, with the
help of Essie, to become a police officer. After losing a friend in
the incident, Simone Knox struggles to find her identity until she
takes up art and sculpting. The survivors are getting their lives
back together when someone starts killing them off one by one. To
find the killer and learn more about how the incidents are related to
the mall shooting, Reed and Essie will have to work overtime. But
they are determined to put a stop to all the violence.
Shelter
in Place is a page-turner, delving deep into the characters' lives
and actions as they try to process traumatic events and move forward.
This one is well-written with a bit of mystery, romance, and enough
action to keep fans turning pages right up until the end.
