Description from Goodreads:
"The home of a family of five is now a crime scene: four of them savagely murdered, one—a sixteen-year-old girl—missing. Was she lucky to have escaped? Or is her absence evidence of something sinister? Detective D. D. Warren is on the case—but so is survivor-turned-avenger Flora Dane. Seeking different types of justice, they must make sense of the clues left behind by a young woman who, whether as victim or suspect, is silently pleading, Look for me."

I've just finished reading Look for Me which is the ninth book in the Detective D.D. Warren series and I have to admit this is another one that has been sitting on my "to-be-read" pile since 2018. I'm slowly making my way through the backlog and I'm glad I finally got around to this one as it didn't disappoint.
The plot involves a family of four murdered in their home but the sixteen year old daughter Roxy is missing. It's a race against time to figure out if she's a victim or a suspect. I really liked the dual perspective here with D.D. Warren doing the police work while Flora Dane from the previous book adds a much grittier layer to the investigation.
The story delves into the foster care system which made for some quite emotional and heavy reading. It's a dark mystery and while the middle section felt a bit drawn out the tension kept me guessing until the end. I'm really enjoying the connection between the characters and seeing how D.D. and Flora work together despite their different backgrounds.
Overall it is a solid and gripping thriller that kept me hooked throughout. It's definitely one of the stronger entries in the series so far and worth a look even if it takes you as long as it took me to get to it!
Many thanks to the author, Publishers and NetGalley for the chance to read and share my thoughts on this one.
