Indelible by Kristen Heitzmann

Synopsis:~

Rescuing a toddler from the jaws of a mountain lion, Trevor MacDaniel, a high-country outfitter, sets in motion events he can’t foresee. His act of bravery entwines his life with gifted sculptor Natalie Reeve—and attracts a grim admirer.

Trevor’s need to guard and protect is born of tragedy, prompting his decision to become a search and rescue volunteer. Natalie’s gift of sculpting comes from an unusual disability that seeks release through her creative hands. In each other they see strength and courage as they face an incomprehensible foe.

When a troubled soul views Trevor as archangel and adversary, Redford’s peaceful mountain community is threatened. Together with Police Chief Jonah Westfall, Trevor presses his limits to combat the menace who targets the most helpless and innocent.

My take:~

Kristen Heitzmann has penned another finely crafted psychological thriller, shaped around the lives of two broken and unique people in Trevor and Natalie.   Delving deep into their psyches, Indelible is character driven and darkly mysterious glimpse into the heart of a gifted woman and man driven to succeed beyond all measure. Their attraction is powerful yet regrets and fears keep their hearts at a distance and Kristen draws this tension out well.  Jonah and Tia from Indivisible feature as Jonah's deepest fears are realised as do Miles and Piper.  While the excerpts of the predator distracted me, the rest of the story is an intriguing blend of meaningful characters, intelligent suspense and the power of love and redemption. I hope Kristen returns to Redford, Colorado soon.
