Loose Gravel-David P. Holmes

loose gravel

First, let me apologize for my silence. I have had bronchitis that turned into pneumonia. I am just a wreck! Very behind on reviews and challenges, but I hope to catch up as I recover.

 

Detective Harold Bruntz is a mess. Unkempt and mean, no one wants to be his partner and the top brass are trying to get rid of him. The only problem is, he is very good at his job. He is like a bulldog, grabbing on to a case and not letting go, until he solves it. His methods are unscrupulous, and probably illegal as all hell, but he gets his man, or woman as the case demands. He is partnered with undercover cop Yo Yo Brown, who brings her own baggage to the table.

A string of crazy murders lead the duo into the world of incest, porn, mental illness, and the Russian Mob.

Harold is not what he appears, as he and Yo Yo won’t stop in their quest for justice.

This is a gritty (no pun intended) thriller that grabs you by the throat and shakes you until your head rattles.

A very dark, well written book that takes you to the dark places of the human psyche.

Adults only- I recommend this to anyone who is looking for something a little different, with complex characters and one tough new hero.

I received this book from the author for review. Thank you!
