I’ve actually read this back in October. I was glad about the development in the relationship of Harper and Tolliver. It’s been so obvious that they needed each other and depended so much on each other.

The kind of murder dealt with in An Ice Cold Grave was different with the others. It’s a serial killer now and also a threat to the two step-siblings. It also dealt with aspects about juvenile criminals and how human or monstrous could a kid really be. Do kids who find pleasure in killing animals, for example, really end up as criminals? How sane or insane are they? I mean, is there just a psychological abnormality to them that can never be cured?

I liked the way Harris handled these issues and written this particular novel. =) I’m still wondering what would happen when Harper finally encounters her sister in the future. As a victim, enemy, or stranger?
