Not the Killing Kind by Maria Kelson
Just a mother trying to prove her sons innocence in the face of mounting evidence. What she finds is more than she ever thought possible.
I felt this one was trying too hard to tick all the political boxes. Adopts a child of another race, teaches undocumented people. It felt like it was laying it on super thick. There was a lot of unbelievable stuff going on in the book but I actually didn't mind it and if you can set that part of it aside, there is a lot of really good action in this book.
Boots (yep that's her name) went toe to toe with the POPO to prove that her son didn't commit the crimes they are laying at his feet. It doesn't look good but she cracks the case against all the odds. I actually enjoyed it but I am a sucker for really crazy books like this.
The ending was really solid, I felt the pace was good and the book set a tone and never waived.
4 stars - I will follow this series.
