Cold Fury by T.M. Goeglein - ADVISABLE


Goeglein, T.M.  Cold Fury, 312 pgs.  G.P. Putnam’s Sons, 2012. $17.99  Content:  Language: PG-13 (81 swears; 10 God); Mature Content: PG; Violence: PG-13. 
  Sara’s life has always revolved around her close-knit family, to the point where she has almost stopped interacting with her friends.  Her loving grandparents and parents run a neighborhood bakery with the help of her uncle, but when her uncle marries, there begins to be some fighting within the family.  While fighting, secrets are hinted at, but never revealed to Sara.  So when Sara returns to her home on the night of her sixteen birthday to find her family home ransacked and her family missing, she begins to work at uncovering the family secrets, some that have been in the family for a long time. 
  This is an action packed story with a strong female character.  The family secret is revealed, but the overall mystery is not solved within this book.  This book introduces some minor characters that will be fun to learn more about in the upcoming book.  My only complaint is that at times it felt like the main character thought and acted more like a teenage boy, than a girl, but it didn’t take away from the excitement and readability of the book.
