Very entertaining police procedural about child trafficking. Some of it is a little outlandish, but I ate it up anyway. I didn’t figure out any of the twists. It’s very dark subjects so check the TW before you pick this up. I do wish the chapters were shorter. There’s lots of breaks within the chapters, but my brain prefers seeing shorter chapters.

Slaughter has done it again. A realistic look into the worst of society. I found myself grossed out, upset, frustrated and sad multiple times throughout this book. This series has gotten my attention.
