The Scavenger's Daughter by Mike McIntyre is a fun, fast-paced, well-researched thriller that has a little bit of everything.There's action and suspense, mystery and romance. And jalapeno ice cream.Tyler West is a former golfer turned Pulitzer-winning journalist, but now he's on the outside looking in and desperate to redeem his reputation. All it will take is one big story.When a prominent city figure is found dead inside a torture device, West is convinced it's murder. But no one else is willing to take the word of a disgraced writer.It's up to West to prove he actually has a story, all while remaining one step ahead - of his competition *and* the killer known only as Friar Tom.The Scavenger's Daughter is smooth, charming, and filled with personality - an absolute pleasure to read. This is hopefully the first of many Tyler West mysteries to come.
