Review
------
"In Dugoni’s outstanding fourth Tracy Crosswhite mystery, the
Seattle homicide detective investigates the death of Andrea
Strickland, a young woman whose body a fisherman finds in a crab
pot raised from the sea...In less deft hands this tale wouldn’t
hold water, but Dugoni presents his victim’s life in discrete
pieces, each revealing a bit more about Andrea and her struggle
to find happiness. Tracy’s quest to uncover the truth leads her
into life-altering peril in this exceptional installment."
—Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
“Dugoni drills so deep into the troubled relationships among his
characters that each new revelation shows them in a disturbing
new light… an unholy tangle of crimes makes this his best book to
date.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Dugoni has a gift for creating compelling characters and
mysteries that seem straightforward, but his stories, like an
onion, have many hidden layers. He also is able to capture the
spirit and atmosphere of the Pacific Northwest, making the
environment come alive.…another winner from Dugoni.” —Associated
Press
“All of Robert Dugoni's talents are once again firmly on display
in The Trapped Girl, a blisteringly effective crime
thriller…structured along classical lines drawn years ago by the
likes of Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett. A fiendishly
clever tale that colors its pages with crisp shades of postmodern
noir.” —Providence Journal
“Robert Dugoni, yet again, delivers an excellent read.…With many
twists, turns, and jumps in the road traveled by the detective
and her cohorts, this absolutely superb plot becomes more than
just a little entertaining. The problem remains the same: Readers
must now once again wait impatiently for the next book by Robert
Dugoni to arrive.” —Suspense Magazine
“The Trapped Girl is a blistering mystery, and some of Robert
Dugoni’s best work to date.” —The Real Book
“Dugoni weaves an intricate and absorbing story that’s as hot as
the unseasonable Seattle weather his detective battles through.”
—Authorlink
