robinmy avatar reviewed on + 2048 more book reviews


After being accused of using excessive force when taking down a serial killer, Detective Angie Pallorino has been given a desk assignment. Angie hates it, but realizes this gives her time to dig into the mystery of her own past. As her lover Detective Sergeant James Maddocks continues working on the sex-trafficking case that she had once been part of, Angie is suddenly pulled into a new case. A child's shoe has washed up onto a beach. The tiny foot inside is found to be a match to Angie's DNA. Could this help unlock parts of Angie's past that she has forgotten?

This is an excellent follow-up to The Drowned Girls. If you haven't read the first book, read it before you start this one. This book picks up right where the last one ended. Angie is in trouble at work and may even lose her job. Maddocks is worried about her and puts up with her stonewalling and lashing out at him. The story is well-paced. I had a hard time putting it down. Each clue shows us something new. I can't wait to start the next book in the series. My rating: 5 Stars.
