A Cop’s Necklace
by Norm Meech
GENRE: Thriller/Mystery
BLURB:
It
has been nearly a year since the murder and kidnapping happened at
the McPherson mansion. Everything has returned to being quiet and
normal around the mansion until a package is delivered to Alex
McNeil.
Inside
the carefully wrapped package, Alex finds an expensive-looking
antique necklace. There is also a note inside the package that reads,
"Mr. McNeil, you have exhibited the ability of being a good
investigator. Find out who stole the necklace, and you will find out
who murdered her."
Investigation
determines that the necklace belonged to missing Bisson City police
sergeant Jennifer Thomson, who was presumed to have been kidnapped
and murdered 10 years ago. Alex takes a leave of absence from the
McPherson mansion, and is hired by the Bisson City police force on a
short-term-employment contract. Alex teams up with his old police
partner Stephanie Foster, and they renew their close friendship while
investigating what happened to their missing colleague, Sergeant
Thomson.

Excerpt:
I fell to sleep as soon as my head hit my pillow. It was a deep sleep and at some point, the dream started again. Stephanie was helping Jennifer prepare for her promotional examination. They were studying police procedures, first they were in some type of library, then they were in someone’s office. A giant hand reaches out from the sky and grabs, Jennifer.
The hand is holding her firmly as she is screaming help me Alex, help me. The hand throws her into some type of room, and she is still screaming help me, help me. I ‘am staring into Jennifer’s eyes and I ‘am trying to run to help her, but I can't seem to get any traction, as door slams shut. I woke up in a sweat looking around the bedroom. The alarm clock said it was 2.10am
My Review:
After that ending, I am not sure where to begin this review. I guess the beginning would be a great place. A Cop's Necklace is about a retired police officer, Alex McNeil. Alex worked as a police officer for 30 years. A few years after retirement he works at an Investment Group (GMIG) as a Security Manager. He is married with two adult children.
Alex finds a package on his doorstep with a necklace in it and a note saying find who stole the necklace and you will find out who murdered her. The necklace belonged to a woman police officer who went missing 10 years ago.
Alex comes out of retirement to try and find out who killed this police officer all those years ago. Alex teams up with his ex-partner Stephanie. Alex has been having dreams about the missing woman all these years.
A Cop's Necklace kept me on my toes as I raced through page after page not being able to stop reading once I picked it up until I had read the last page. And I do believe that this one will stay with me for a long, long time to come if not forever. The mystery and suspense are more than enough to keep those pages turning.
The twists just kept rolling out one after the other leaving you wanting more and more. Twists that kept on surprising me right up until the end. Oh, and speaking of the end. That was one of the biggest shockers I have ever read in an ending I do believe. I couldn’t believe what I was reading. I am still in shock. Talk about ending things now that is one way to take care of business. Whoa!
That ending did it for me. I now want to read more by this author and I highly recommend reading A Cop's Necklace or any other book by Norm Meech. What a great surprise. Yeah, I recommend this author’s work highly! What a great storyteller! Grab your copy today!
