Too powerful to describe!
What a remarkably powerful, and unfortunately, not unfamiliar story type in Throwaways by Elliott Light . I've read another book of this author's, and after reading this, where I hung on every word, I have become a huge fan of this author. This author brings the story to life. The characters had a lot of depth and were very real. The darkness of the real-world hits Jake right in the face, upon discovering the body of someone he will never forget. This story brings in the real world of child sex-trafficking, and even an eviler world. Jake instantly gets pulled in, especially because of his own past, right into the middle of the investigation, to figure out who she is, and who killed her. It's a remarkably written story, and though it hints of real-life villainous pedophiles, it's a story that is unique and emotional. It’s one of those embraceable stories. Though, I wanted to keep reading, there were times, when you just need to set it down, and then come back to it. It's that powerful and shows a very sad and pathetic, evil world that is out there, and not just hiding in shadows anymore. Definitely an unpredictable story, my favorite kind! Wow! Masterfully written! Throwaways is a definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews. I look forward to reading many more stories by this author.
