Product Description

Product Description

Everything changes for Lieutenant Julia Brennan, NYPD, on a January morning in Central Park. The commander of a Manhattan North homicide squad, she inspects the body of an unidentified young girl. Naked, her skin blue from the cold, her feet cut and scraped as if from desperate flight, the grim sight of the dead child in an instant turns Brennan's priorities upside down. Brennan is tough-minded, but suddenly she finds herself willing to risk her promotion and, if necessary, her entire career to give a woefully lost child a name and to apprehend the parties responsible for an appalling crime. Her search takes her into the world of paedophiles and foreign adoption agencies that sell children into slavery - a world where, Julia begins to realise, someone is way ahead of her, and is killing off the very suspects she is tracking down. Striking a devil's bargain with an undercover cop from the Sex Crimes unit, a man with a troubled past, Julia follows a tortuous path until, alone and dismayed, she sees that she has made a terrible mistake. Now she faces her greatest fear. For Lieutenant Julia Brennan is also a mother, and no one means more to her than her young daughter...

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful New York City Police Thriller, 10 Dec 2001
By J. Jordan "Editor of Crimespree Magazine" (milwaukee, wi United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Little Girl Blue (Hardcover)
The book starts out with the discovery of a body. A little girl dead in Central Park. The case comes to Julia Brennan, who starts calling the girl, Little Girl Blue. Julia is a Lieutenant, a Detective who is hoping to move up. And the more she finds out while tracking down who is responsible, the less she seems to care about moving up. It becomes a personal quest. One that take her into a dark area of humanity. Pedophiles. She is given the name of a cop who can help her. But the cost of his help is unknown, as is most things about him. And as Brennan and Foley go after the people responsible for the initial homicide, bodies start to follow their investigation.

Cray writes with a tight and relentless grip on the reader. Instantly drawing you in and not letting go. The book moves like a carnival ride not letting you guess what's coming next. The characters are well written and believable. And the procedural part of the police work involved rings true. The villains are not over the top and are in fact all to real.

This was a wonderful book, one I could not put down till it was done. And then I was disappointed that there was no more left to read. I'm going to pick up Cray's first two novels, and plan to buy what ever else he may write.
