Suitcase Girl by Ty Hutchinson
4.0
When a young girl is found alive, in a suitcase outside the FBI’s headquarters, agent Abby Kane finds herself involved in a mystery that feels somehow too personal to let go. She doesn’t normally investigate live victims but “Suitcase Girl” is an enigma. Scared, with obvious memory loss, and unwilling to speak, there’s no telling what has happened to her or what was supposed to have. Was she meant to be killed and survived? Who is she and where did she come from? Is she some sort of message? And why is the first thing everyone notices about her how much she resembles Abby?
There are a lot of questions to answer in this taut procedural thriller, which kept me turning the page. I went into this book with zero expectations as I got it as my free Kindle First read for the month and was pleasantly surprised. I hadn’t heard of this title or author before, but will read more by Ty Hutchison in the future.
Well-paced, well-researched, and a sharply-written, original procedural, “Suitcase Girl” offers lot of twists and surprises. My only real complaint is the ending. I re-read the last two chapters, twice, and I feel like something was lost in the rush to conclusion. Will I read the second in the series for clarification? Eventually, probably. Do I enjoy having to get another book to finish something started in a first in series novel? Nope. “Suitcase Girl” is a five-star read downgraded for a two-star cliffhanger ending. Recommended for folks who read series novels as opposed to standalones.
