My Review

4/5 Stars

When rich girls start to turn up dead, there are plenty of theories as to why. The parents are suspicious, everyone is suspicious. When FBI agent Victoria Heslin’s work takes her into the depths of a sex trafficking ring, she enlists the help of an old friend to save the girls stuck in that prison.

I didn’t read the first book in this series, but even so, it was easy to get lost in this second book. It was full of suspense, mystery, and intrigue. Every time I thought I figured it out, there were twists that threw me for a loop. Characters are solid, and even the bad guys had enough character development that it was easy to understand their motives.

Though this book deals with some heavy topics such as sex trafficking and corruption, it’s still an immersive read.

Narration is good, especially with the accents.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
