"What She Found", by Robert Dugoni




Book #9 in the Tracy Crosswhite mysteries

Tracy is an homicide detective handling cold cases in her latest assignment she investigates a twenty-fine years disappearance of Lisa Childress, a newspaper reporter, who vanished after going to meet an anonymous informant late at night. After examining what Lisa was looking into Tracy became uneasy of what she discovered.

In convincingly details Mr. Dugoni gives Tracy a methodical and creative approach to solving the mystery. The truth was crucial where ever it led and following Tracy footsteps was reopening an explosive investigation: a drug task force scandal, a councilman’s criminal sex life, a mayoral graft and an elusive serial killer who disappeared mysteriously. It doesn’t take long before we are in a level of suspense and tension nonstop and as all the pieces come together and the truth begins to clear it was hard not to turn pages as fast as I could to see what Tracy would come up with next. This story doesn’t involve force and violence and seems realistic. What a nice change.

No doubt, “What She Found” is a strong police procedural drama dialogue driven and very active. Behind the tale is a story of a young woman affected with amnesia, the loss of her past and the hope for a better future. I love the way it was written and how the characters come to life. This mystery is gripping and riveting from start to finish and well-done.

Thank you Netgalley and Thomas & Mercer for the advance copy of this book.
