Cold Burn is the second in the A.J. Landau National Parks Thriller series, and it is just as good as the first, Leave No Trace. In both books, the series name with its plural “parks” is appropriate given the multiple settings. This time around, the book’s action moves from Alaska to New Orleans to Fishers Island in New York to the Everglades, and even underwater to a nuclear submarine, immersing us in each of the settings with descriptive and evocative language.
