On a cold blustery November night, Detective Sergeant Mike Brugge and his partner Detective Constable Mel Bailey come across a girl, age unknown, in the parkland in Gordon Square. She was frail, malnourished, dirty and covered in excrement.
What had happened to this girl? Why was she covering down, shielding her eyes from the light, with a look of horror on her face? She appeared to be non-coherent, totally unengaged and would not speak to anyone. Nothing could penetrate the world where her soul had taken solace.
Mike and Mel set out to find out where she had come from and what had been per plight. Revealing hypnosis sessions allow them to glimpse some of her pain suffering. Follow their story deep into the horrors that unfold, causing chaos and turmoil among their own lives.
The detectives are about to discover a horrific, gut-wrenching story, that spanned over four decades. But will it end?
Review:
Gordon Square by Tracy Martin-Summers might just be one of my favorite books I’ve read this year. I didn’t know what I was walking into when I set out reading this book, but, wow! Fair warning, once you start reading, you won’t stop.
Mike and Mel are really likeable characters. I felt connected to them from the beginning and watching them try to solve what happened was an emotional rollercoaster.
The plot is full of twists I didn’t expect. The writing is tight, and intriguing. This is fast paced and as I said before, darn near impossible to set down.
If you hadn’t guessed, it’s 5 stars from me. Don’t miss this one.
