First published by Oak Tara in 2010 under the title "A Heart of Justice", this second series title has Officer Brinna Caruso and her K-9 rescue dog Hero called in to investigate the death of a young girl whose body is found on the edge of the San Gabriel River. Many of the wounds on the girl's body are not fresh, suggesting long-term abuse. Brinna's search leads to evidence of a human trafficking ring operating in the area. The story flashes between Brinna's attempts to track down the operators of the ring and the day-to-day lives of its unfortunate victims. VERDICT This hard-edged and chilling narrative rings with authenticity. Cantore is a retired Long Beach, CA, police officer with 22 years of experience on the force, and fans of police suspense fiction will be drawn in by her accurate and dramatic portrayal.Copyright 2014 Library Journal, LLC Used with permission.
