When a body of a young woman turns up in Chicago, a CPD detective Harriet Foster is assigned to the case. The problem is, she’s got some big issues to tackle herself. But as more bodies pile up, Forster needs to figure out how to put the killer behind bars before it’s too late, and confront some of the secrets of her own.
Pros: A gripping story with multi-dimensional characters. Great pace and dialogue.
Cons: Too obvious of a plot, but it didn’t particularly bother me as much. However, as some of other reviewers mentioned, the way Foster reacts in certain situations would have been much more believable if she were a rookie. When a 17 year veteran gets rattled by something most rookies would brush off without breaking a sweat, it annoys and distracts from the otherwise good and engaging story.
If you can get past this, you’ll enjoy the book. 4.0 Stars.
