"The Deadliest Sins" by Rick Reed

                                                                                    








"Jack agreed that it wasn't something they could do on the telephone. But he believed that sooner or later they would have to follow their guts to wherever that would take them. Tracking a serial killer through five states wasn't something he'd had to do. "

Jack Murphy is back in book 7 of this detective series. I have read and reviewed the previous six, and am totally addicted to “Jack Murphy.”

The story begins with the gruesome murders of immigrants, found in an abandoned vehicle. Is this a political statement? Is it a reflection of how people feel about immigrants, or is it something more sinister? Jack, along with his partner, Lydell, have every intention of solving these murders. 

I love the interaction between Jack and Lydell. There is an underlying sense of humor that runs throughout each book. Some of the characters are too annoying not to make fun of them. Jack is a master at putting people in their place, in a subtle way. 

The characters in these books are so well written you believe they exist. Many layers make for an interesting read. The suspense and action also ring true. 

Many things are at stake this go round. A child, families, wives and FBI agents are also in the daily life of Jack and his partner. Doing what they do best, seeking justice for those that no longer have a voice. 

Jack is on a wild ride to solve these murders. Who would leave people in a truck to die a cruel death? 

Thank you Rick Reed, Netgalley, and Kensington Books.
