Long Bright River (Paperback)
Liz MooreMickey Fitzpatrick has been patrolling the 24th District for years. She knows most of the working women by name. She knows what desperation looks like and what people will do when they need a fix. She’s become used to finding overdose victims: their numbers are growing every year. But every time she sees someone sprawled out, slumped over, cold to the touch, she has to pray it’s not her sister, Kacey.
When the bodies of murdered sex workers start turning up on the Ave, the Chief of Police is keen to bury the news. They’re not the kind of victims that generate a whole lot of press anyway. But Mickey is obsessed, dangerously so, with finding the perpetrator - before Kacey becomes the next victim.

"My review" by Breakaway R. -
A very depressing read. Michaela (Mickey) Fitzpatrick is on patrol with her new partner, Eddie Lafferty when a call comes through for them to report to the scene where the body of a woman is found in the Kensington district that they patrol. She’s been murdered. When Mickey first reaches the murder scene she is terrified that the body might be that of her sister, Kacey, a drug-addict. As more murders occur, the more worried Mickey becomes about her sister especially as she can’t find her. What is even more disturbing is that one of the prostitutes has told her that the murderer is a policeman. But who? Can Michaela find the person before her sister becomes his next victim? This is one of the most depressing books I’ve ever read. Its setting is in an area of Philadelphia that is rundown and crime-riddled thanks to the opioid use amongst its diverse population of Irish American, African American, East Asian and Caribbean inhabitants. I found it hard to have any empathy for either the characters or the area and therefore couldn’t find any enthusiasm or anything to want to keep turning the pages. Bluebell Breakaway Reviewers received a copy of the book to review.
