Trigger by Kris Brooker
Trigger was groomed in the House of the Lord. The coveting of priests, they said, was a reward for his faith. But God sent Jamie, the girl with blood on her hands. She saved them both, and God’s warriors burned in Hell.
Hidden amongst London’s homeless Trigger feels that God has stopped listening. Jamie broke her vow and killed again. Torn between his faith and his affection, Trigger will do anything to protect her.
Sergeant Adams has made the connection. A third body convinces him there’s a serial-killer loose in London, so why won’t his superiors listen?
Adams will risk his job, and his life, to stop a killer preying on London’s homeless.
Three personalities, ever-darkening desires; an endgame they’ll never see coming.
Crime thrillers r my thing, but this is tuff to xplain without spoilers. It’s sad, tense, disturbing, & yet lovely. Adams rocks!
5* Some shit issues faced up to. Happens every day. I know, it’s my job. Did I say 5*? Nothing more to say
Trigger is strange, disturbing, and imaginative. An engaging read. Strong characters and scenery. Wasn’t keen on 1st person pov, but grew on me
Had to read this first after reading reviews.
Glad i did.
Trigger is real.
I need counselling after reading this. It really took me.. where I’m not sure I wanted to go. Wonderfully written & hard to put down
