Self-help✦ Penny’s Take📱 Kindle
A Dream of Death (Detective Lincoln Munroe, Book 1)
Harrison Drake · 2012
62/100
👎 Skip It
This debut leans on the author's real police background to give the procedural details a genuine ring of truth, and the dual mystery — a live serial-killer case tangled up with decades-old remains — keeps the pages turning. It's competent adult crime fiction, but without confirmed details on language and content, and with no independent reviews to lean on, it reads as solid rather than standout.
