The Juan Doe Murders, A Smokey Brandon Thriller by Noreen Ayres is a fascinating mystery-thriller. It kept my interest from beginning to end.
Samantha "Smokey" Brandon is an intriguing, well-developed protagonist. She's a former stipper from Las Vegas and is an ex-cop who is working as a forensics investigator. I gave it five stars.
She is compelled to solve the murder of "Little Crane", a young immigrant who was tortured and killed. She also believes a serial killer is at work. I added all of Noreen Ayres' books to my wishlist.
I received a complimentary copy from Brash Books and NetGalley. That did not change my opinion for this review.
