关于此有声读物

ToxiCity is #3 in the Georgia Davis PI Series

There’s an inventive killer at large in Chicago in this dark thriller and police procedural from best-selling crime writer Libby Fischer Hellmann.

"I was blown away once I began reading. The author’s style is fast paced and exciting. I literally couldn’t put the book down… Think CSI meets Erin Brockovich…" F. Murrell

When three bodies turn up in rapid succession, all in landfills or waste disposal dumpsters, rookie cop Georgia Davis is drawn into the investigation. Teaming up with her detective boyfriend Matt and his friend Detective Sergeant John Stone, Georgia must work out who’s responsible for the killings, but there’s little evidence to go on. The case tests the strength of Georgia’s relationship with Matt—complicating the situation is the daughter of a real estate mogul, who happens to have her eye on Matt.

Who’s behind these gruesome killings in this normally quiet neighborhood? Why are children developing cancer? And will Georgia’s relationship withstand the demands of this particularly complex investigation?

"Anybody that loves police procedurals written tautly, with grit and a healthy dose of noir, will love this one…her Georgia Davis series may just be one of the best crime thriller series being written today." The Seattle Post-Intelligencer

If you like Tess Gerritsen, Karin Slaughter, and Lisa Gardner, you'll love the Compulsively Readable Thrillers by Libby Fischer Hellmann.
