Happy Monday everyone! I apologize in advance for the influx of reviews you’ll be seeing today and tomorrow!

Thanks to Putnam for this upcoming release!

THE POLICEMAN’S DAUGHTER – Trudy Nan Boyce (Releasing February 28th, 2018)

Be sure to check out the #allthebookreviews thoughts the end of the month 🙂

Here’s the synopsis:

At the beginning of her career, Sarah “Salt” Alt was a beat cop in Atlanta’s poorest, most violent housing project, The Homes. It is here that she meets the cast of misfits and criminals that will have a profound impact on her later cases: Man Man, the leader of the local gang on his way to better places; street dealer Lil D and his family; and Sister Connelly, old and observant, the matriarch of the neighborhood. A lone patrolwoman, Salt’s closest lifeline is her friend and colleague Pepper, on his own beat nearby. And when a murder in The Homes brings detectives to the scene, Salt draws closer to Detective Wills, initiating a romance complicated by their positions on the force.

When Salt is shot and sustains a head injury during a routine traffic stop, the resulting visions begin leading her toward answers in the case that makes her career. This is the tale of a woman who solves crimes through a combination of keen observation, grunt work, and pure gut instinct; this is the making of Detective Salt.
