"A 2012 Global Ebook Awards finalist ... Ice on the Grapevine: A Hunter Rayne Highway Mystery is a tense murder mystery featuring tough-minded ex-homicide detective turned eighteen-wheel truck driver Hunter Rayne. ... [It] is a riveting mystery that will keep the reader guessing to the very end." - Midwest Book Review

This is a well spun yarn, full of plot detail and credible human response. Whodunit addicts will not be disappointed. - The Kindle Book Review

On a warm July morning in L.A. County, a frozen corpse turns up at a highway brake check just south of the Grapevine Pass. Ex-homicide detective Hunter Rayne, who now drives an eighteen wheeler, is persuaded by his irascible dispatcher, Elspeth Watson, to help clear two fellow truck drivers who are arrested for the murder. His job is made more difficult by the fact that the suspects, a newlywed couple, won't speak up in their own defense.

The circumstantial evidence is strong, and a rookie detective from the L.A. County Sheriff's Department is eager to score a win. The investigation crosses the Canada-U.S. border when the victim is identified as a second rate musician from Vancouver, and it turns out there were more than a few desperate people happy to see him dead, including the accused couple. Hunter has to use all his investigative skills to uncover the truth.

Hunter’s ex-wife maintains that by taking to the highway Hunter is running away from his past, but he believes that the solitude of days on the road is helping him to heal from guilt over the failure of his marriage and the suicide of his best friend. Tangled relationships and multiple suspects emerge throughout the novel, as Hunter butts heads with more than one officer of the law to solve the crime.

What readers are saying:

“Those were the best mysteries I’ve read in a long time!! As soon as I finished the first one I bought the second and felt empty when I finished it! The characters were awesome and so there that I somehow think they are in my life!”

“… this book caught my attention from the very first pages and it only got better. …I recommend this book to anyone who has a love for a good mystery."

“Great trucking detail, hardboiled characters, no-nonsense dialogue, and a surprise ending."

Death on the road

2015年9月15日に英国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

How did a man freeze to death in the back of a refrigerated lorry? Did the drivers do it? Hunter Rayne, ex Mountie turned truck driver, investigates. Well observed and well written drama set in the tight blue collar world of long haul trucking. Hunter no longer has police powers so has to rely on his intelligence and knowledge of character to work it out.
The second in the series, this is a better book than the first. You really do get a sense of the world these people live in: the bars, truck stops and custom posts. The characters are multi dimensional and interestingly the author is not afraid of creating an unlikable character in the form of Lt 'Cupcake' the abrasive detective who is convinced he's already got his man.

Character driven mystery.

2021年2月7日に英国でレビュー済み

A lorry driver pulls over for a regular mid-journey vehicle check and discovers a frozen corpse in the trailer. A nightmare for any truck driver, still these things happen even when double-manning. This incident leads to the drivers being arrested and their transport manager enlists the help of ex-RCMP trucker Hunter Rayne to assist in their release.

This second book in the series can be read as a stand-alone and thankfully the reader does not need any back story. I found this book to be a refreshing mystery with plenty of characters and sub-plots. The story progressed at a steady pace and there was a lot of warmth between the characters.

The trucking parts provided a good backdrop for this story and I loved the little details like cabotage. Where this story scores though is the relationships people develop with others and not just the two legged sort. We meet Peaches, a Pomeranian who, like most dogs, love to travel.

I enjoyed the chemistry that developed between the characters, Hunter warming to Peaches, romance among the adults and sexy scenes to make you smile. Angie was a big surprise, one of those scenes that once you read you can’t unread. As for the couple who after the third time shared a can of Budweiser, well - laughing out loud - I would be very disappointed if you offered me half a can of beer after performing three times. I would want a full can and three biscuits, thank you.

I liked how this mystery unfolded with lots of possibilities about how the victim ended up in the trailer and all the likely people who may have wanted him off the scene.

I think this character driven mystery is a GOOD 4 star read and is considerably better than the first book in this series, Slow Curve on the Coquihalla.

Beautifully crafted detective story

This is the third Hunter Rayne book I've read and it's every bit as good, if not better, than others in the series. Following the discovery of the frozen body of an unidentified man, fellow truckers Ray and Sharon, are arrested for his murder. The recently married couple were hauling a load of frozen meat and it soon becomes clear that the man froze to death locked in their refrigerated truck. Whilst vehemently protesting their innocence, they are obviously hiding something and ex Canadian Mountie Hunter is going to have his work cut out if he is to find anything that will help the hapless pair. All of the characters are so well-rounded. My particular favourite was the ambitious young detective, ruthless in his determination to crack the case and achieve the professional recognition he feels he deserves. He has you disliking him one minute and empathising with him the next. Never a particularly appealing character, his vulnerability comes through and despite his failings, you can't help wanting to know how things work out for him in the end. The contrast between the Canadian rather formal attitudes and the American much more aggressive personalities is so well portrayed. However, some of the references are rather dated and may not be easily recognisable for younger readers. Equally, some of the attitudes may not be as relevant now as they were when the book was written. I think it would also have helped the physical readability of the book if the different sections within the chapters had been split up using a page break of some sort. The story did switch from scene to scene without warning and this was disconcerting at times. Apart from these minor technical points, Ice on the Grapevine is an excellent book in an extremely skilfully written series and I look forward to reading another one soon.

Disappointing

Disappointing. Whilst the story may have some merit, although rather unbelievable in parts, it was obvious the author reckons it necessary to incorporate foul gutter swearing and even worse blasphemy! What enters the heads of authors to steep so low is bothering. Such language isn't necessary to sell books, it rather gives a strong impression of an author unable to draw on the comprehensively large volume of sensible words to convey a story.
Thankfully, there are authors who present to their audience a riveting story without the draw of swear words or blasphemy.

Excellent

This book held my attention throughout. A really exciting story with strong characters. I would have given 5 stars but there was a small problem. The story keeps shifting between characters without any indication. One sentence is character a and the next you suddenly discover it's character b. Confusing and so easy to fix. Just insert something even a line of dots.
