Fiction. Mystery. Suspense. Thriller. HTML:JACK MURPHY DELIVERS JUSTICE

Detective Jack Murphy can read a crime scene like a book. When the naked, brutalized corpse of a narcotics cop is found, it's not the body that tells him a sick killer is on the loose, but the monkey figurine—of the "see no evil" kind—shoved down his throat. It's a message, not a clue. Then a high-profile judge is set on fire. Another figurine left behind. Murphy has a guess what's next. But it's not what he expects. The torture-killer taking out Evansville's defenders of law and order isn't the only one with secrets. The victims might have a few,
too . . .

Praise for Rick Reed and his novels

"A jaw-dropping thriller."—Gregg Olsen

"Leaves you wondering whether you really did lock the doors before you went to bed."—Mystery Scene

"Put this on your must-read list."—John Lutz

"The things Reed has seen as a police officer make for a great book."
Suspense Magazine

"Rick Reed knows the dark side as only a real-life cop can, and his writing crackles with authenticity." —Shane Gericke.

The Slowest Death by Rick Reed
Jack Murphy # 6

New author to me – would definitely read more by this author

Jack Murphy has a story that I had no inkling of before joining in on book six of his literary detective journey. I am curious about his past BUT did not need to know all of it as he tried to figure out who was killing people on his turf in graphically disturbing ways.

Netsuke figures of monkeys in the iconic see/hear/speak no evil and then some small figures appear in the murders and all are stuffed down baddies throats after they have suffered at the hands of a righteously vengeful avenger of the death of someone oh so close to his soul. I won’t tell you more but will say that the revenge felt justified in some ways but also felt as if the perpetrator was somewhat unhings…again…justified? And, there was Jack and his life that I don’t know much about as well as his partner and others but all in all this was a great read that kept me interested from beginning to end.

Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington Books-Lyrical Press for the ARC this is my honest review.
