MY REVIEW

All The Captive Girls by Linda Hurtado Bond picks up where All The Girls Are Missing left off. Mari Alvarez, Tampa Bay crime reporter’s, past comes back to haunt her….and everyone she cares about are in danger.

John Hanks, a former cop and a serial killer, had used his position to find his victims. Everyone thought he had died in a fire, but they were mistaken. I love books that use vigilantes to seek justice for those who escape it, but John has now taken it to a new level. He is playing a game with Mari…and the end goal is her death.

More and more books are dealing with artificial intelligence and it makes me more aware of how easily it can ruin someone’s life. How easy it is to to twist the truth, making our world smoke and mirrors, making it impossible to distinguish fact from fiction.

Mari does have a love interest, Detective Tony Garcia. He holds his emotions close to his vest. She believes he cares deeply for her, but he doesn’t show it. What will it take for him to commit?

Linda Hurtado Bond sure does know how to whip my emotions into a frenzy. The pacing of All The Captive Girls kept me on pins and needles. Her ability to lead me down a dark and dangerous path keeps me wanting more.

I voluntarily reviewed a free copy of All The Captive Girls by Linda Hurtado Bond.

GOODREADS BLURB

He’ll take who you love.

From Emmy Award–winning journalist Linda Hurtado Bond comes a ferocious, terrifying game where your own eyes can deceive you…and a killer will watch every move you make.

Tampa Bay crime reporter Mari Alvarez thought the worst was behind her. She thought she could return to work, her sister, her friends, and her still-undefined relationship with Detective Tony Garcia. To find something almost normal…until a killer everyone thought was dead contacts her.

Because he wants to play a game—a twisted dance of revenge, where Mari must play by the rules…or lose everyone and everything she loves.

Now Tampa Bay’s lively Gasparilla pirate festival has turned into an event filled with terror and horror, and Mari is the unwitting star. Every move she makes is being watched by social media, even as the killer twists the truth and manipulates her with lies, deepfakes, and misinformation.

He can take her job. He can take her reputation. He can take everyone who loves her.

And unless she can stop him, he’ll hold her captive in the one cage she won’t be able to her own fear.
