Detective Freya Sinclair is on the case in this new riveting, unsettling, twisted, and shocking mystery thriller. Woohoo! When the body of a young girl is pulled from the river, Freya is determined to get to the bottom of things. Three Drowned Girls had me doing my own detective work trying to figure out whodunit.
Freya has a dark history. Her parents are serial killers, and she has vowed to do her best to bring other criminals to justice. She knew returning to her hometown would be hard, but she never imagined what would be waiting for her when she did. Freya is determined, hardworking, tough, and unrelenting. I loved her relationship with Esther, the woman who took her during her teenage years. Enough is provided about Freya’s serial killer parents to whet my appetite and pique my interest. I look forward to learning more about her past and her parents in future books.
This is an interesting and dark police procedural with a likeable characters – Freya, Esther, Brad, and Candy. I enjoyed them and look forward to getting to know more about each of them in future books.
Although this book did not move as fast as I would have liked, I found it to be enjoyable, with a nice number of twists and turns. Reading about the murder of children is not easy but the author handled it with care, and nothing is told in detail or graphic.
I had both the book and audiobook versions of this book. I enjoyed the narrator of the audiobook. I thought she did a great job bringing the characters to life.
I look forward to reading the next book in the series!
Dark, twisted, captivating, well thought out, and well written.
