The Devil's Advocate by Steve Cavanagh
5.0
Cavanagh is one of my favourite authors and lives on my "auto-buy" list. Nobody does crime thriller like this.
I haven't read one of his books in a while and I'd forgotten how you just have to read it in one sitting and you feel like you can't breathe until it's done.
This had a modern day "To Kill A Mockingbird" vibe and I really struggled with the theme of the story. Important and relevant and frightening for sure; I felt equal parts rage and heartbreak. It was brutal.
Feeling depressed, frustrated and helpless I considered stopping half way because it felt too real and was hurting too much but Eddie Flynn and his team are the fiercely loyal squad you dream of finding. They make you want to jump right into the pages and shoot anyone who tries to hurt them in the face. So I finished and I'm so glad I did. I needed the closure on this one.
