Butchers Hill
Butchers Hill | Laura Lippman
5 posts | 12 read | 5 to read
Tess Monaghan has finally made the move and hung out her shingle as a p.i.-for-hire, complete with an office in Butchers Hill. Maybe it's not the best address in Baltimore, but you gotta start somewhere, and Tess's greyhound Esskay has no trouble taking marathon naps anywhere there's a roof. Then in walks Luther Beale, the notorious vigilante who five years ago shot a boy for vandalizing his car. Just out of prison, he says he wants to make reparations to the kids who witnessed his crime, so he needs Tess to find them. But once she starts snooping, the witnesses start dying. Is the "Butcher of Butchers Hill" at it again? Like it or not, Tess is embroiled in a case that encompasses the powers that-be, a heartless system that has destroyed the lives of children, and a nasty trail of money and lies leading all the way back to Butchers Hill.

Amazon's current crop of Amazon original stories is so good! This is the first time I've read anything by this author but it won't be the last.
This work is not in the litsy database so I tagged the first one on her list.

A great little read from Laura Lippman. This satisfies a female detective for #booked2019. One more to go. My least favorite category. Retelling of a fairy tale. 🙅🏻‍♀️

Cathythoughts Well done 👍🏻. Fairy tale was my least favorite too 6y
Cinfhen Yeah....my fairytale was tough too!! But it was SUPER SHORT and it was a freebie on Hoopla

Today‘s #bookhaul from Goodwill to restock my Little Free Library. The selection of adult books was pretty poor but I really needed kids books so I think I did ok there. Has anyone read the tagged book? I‘m wondering if I should keep it. 🤷🏼‍♀️

MelissaSue81 I‘ve not read the tagged book but this is a great haul! 6y

A definite step up from the last one. Two clients for PI Tess with full back stories, some real detecting and surprisingly affecting family stuff in the little-bit-too-neat wrap up. I enjoyed that.
