The Second Girl by David Swinson

My rating: 4.7

Respected cop who took early retirement, Raymond Marr now works as a Private Investigator. No one except the Police Chief knows Ray's dirty secret that would cause him to stop being a cop...his drug addiction. As a P.I., he knows how to make his next score but in the process of raiding a drug house, finds a kidnapped teenager girl naked and chained to a radiator in the bathroom. This sets off a series of events including him reluctantly taking a case for another missing teenage girl


Ray is both dirty and willing to do deplorable things as well as charming and a hero. Also love how it captures D.C. This is a gritty real mystery novel - I believe due to Swinson being a highly decorated Police Officer in Washington D.C....including doing undercover in Narcotics A very 'real' novel and I will definitely read more by Swinson.
