Review: Broken Dolls

Broken Dolls tackles a difficult subject, the seedy underworld of human trafficking and prostitution but does it with compassion and insight. The discovery of a dead preterm baby, abandoned with the rubbish, leads the police on a hunt for her mother which ultimately uncovers the prostitution network responsible for bringing innocent, foreign girls to their tragic fate.

I was fascinated by the police procedures involved in tracking down the suspects in this case. the advantages of an author being in the police department herself are obviously staggering. I haven’t read any of the other DC Charlie Stafford books but that wasn’t important as the story flowed independently and gave enough backstory to make it unnecessary.

Thanks as always to #NetGalley for making it possible for me to read and review this book.
