Book Review: "Find Her Alive" By D.S. Butler

 Have you ever sat and thought boy, "I could go for a drink right now?"

Well, not too fast. What if that drink was spiked? What if there's a sicko out there spiking drinks to sexually abuse women? What if this person(s) was involved for more lucrative dealings?

If women were honest in reporting said crimes would anyone even believe them? Would they be victim blamed or shamed?

Are you a frequent bar patron? Do you know and or trust your bartender? Would you trust your friends for a fun night out drinking?

I'm not a drinker but I can say this book hit all the high notes and then some.
We have mystery, we have murder, we have intrigue, and we have ourselves a money trail.
I mean we all know money is the root of all evil and this book is a runaway upon that notion.

Detective Kate has been tasked with finding a missing lady named Phoebe. She was last scene at the local pub and has two timeframes within a day apart of her last sighting.
As readers we learn that she had some friends, family, and some not so lovely acquaintances in her repertoire of this shady inner circle surrounding her.

Could one of those in her personal or professional life be a suspect in her departure?
Is she truly missing?

Could she herself be hiding a secret or two?

With suspects seemingly coming out of the woodwork it's suffice to say that something is terribly wrong.

When DNA evidence is located after a sudden death we learn that not everything is all fun and games. Serious criminal activities are on going and it then switches to a race against time to find Phoebe and solve the mystery.

I love the twist, turns, and thickening plot from every angle with suspects, investigations, and criminal craftsmanship in weeding them out one by one.

It's with great joy that I highly recommend this new thriller to all of you.

Thank you for this wonderful new ARC via Netgalley for this honest review.
