Why read it?
1 author picked Last Resort as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The novel touches on the world of human trafficking and how often people go missing without anyone realizing it.
Its dark world is a burgeoning industry where children are abducted for profit and pleasure. The dogged protagonist follows a thin trail and unearths a huge ring of pedophiles. The pace and dialogue are excellent.
I learned how deep that world is and how easily it is for overwhelmed investigators to simply give up and relegate the files into cold cases.
From E.R.'s list on gutsy crime thrillers and exotic adventure reads.
