Lou Alcott left the police force under less than desirable circumstances. As the granddaughter of an infamous crime lord that was probably for the best.
She’s signed on as a P.I. and is prepared to sit behind a desk and comb through background checks and bank statements for white collar companies, however her first day on the job, a timid woman who escaped a domestic violence relationship requests a female to do a security check on her residence. The next day, she is missing.
Can Lou uncover the trail to find her in time or is her first case on the job doomed to fail?
Oh, and someone’s trying to kill her… all in a days work right?

First of all, thank you to netgalley and the publishers for allowing me to access this early.
I LOVED this book. This is an amazing work full of feminine rage that encompasses the themes that women experience every day. It feels incredibly on point for Australia even today.

There is a lot of information and plot lines that are running simultaneously throughout the work however it doesn’t feel convoluted.

The representation of women is phenomenal. It values all personality types and strengths. It doesn’t judge or shame the victims. It is written from a place of understanding that adds depth to the characters.

The attention to detail is next level, I love trying to guess who done to and I was pleasantly surprised with the twist at the end of this.

I highly recommend this to lovers of crime fiction, lovers of Australian dramas and all women everywhere.
