Two Girls Down by Louisa LunaMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Thank you to Doubleday Books and NetGalley for the advance reader copy Two Girls Down by Louisa Luna in exchange for an honest review. I love mystery and detective stories and this book did not disappoint! Alice Vega is a successful bounty hunter hired by the family of two young girls who went missing at a mall. Alice is tough to figure out, very savvy when it comes to doing things her own way and she has plenty of resources and a tech guy who can get almost any information she needs. But when it comes to Witness Statements, Alice decides to hire/approach Cap, a disgraced cop who now has his own private investigation firm with a teen daughter who is just as interested in her father’s cases. Mystery lovers will be spellbound by the many twists and turns the case takes as many clues evolve, with Cap and Alice working overtime with no sleep to win over the police department, so they can ALL share clues to find these girls. There are surprises aplenty, but together Cap & Vega keep digging, as time ticks agonizingly fast. Will they find the girls? Will they be alive? If alive, will they be emotionally stable? I also liked the element of romantic interest between Cap & Vega that grows as the tension mounts. Luna’s major characters are well drawn and minor characters in the police department and suspects, friends and families questioned are all interesting and integral. I want to see Alice Vega turn into a mystery series. This is a riveting, mesmerizing detective thriller and will keep mystery lovers turning the pages; highly recommended!
