As the Wicked Watch by Tamron Hall

5.0

What a way to tell a STOOOORY‼️‼️ I mean talk about well plotted. It was suspenseful, realistic, and pulsating. She laid out the foundation and followed through effortlessly. From start to finish I was engaged and filled with so many different emotions. You’ll understand why once you read it. The beginning had a slow start but there was a steady build up. So, the more I got into it the more I became overly invested with figuring out this murder. I literally enjoyed this book for what it was. I was left SATISFIED & ENTERTAINED‼️ I love when a book is truly a mystery and the ending isn’t predictable.

Crime reporter Jordan Manning, covering the story of missing 15-year-old Masey James was determined to uncover the truth. Attempting to help free those falsely accused and give a grieving mother closure. Jordan goes over her line of duty putting her own life at stake searching for answers.

What made this so realistic was the fact the story itself is something we’ve heard about so many times. The way law enforcement treats cases involving missing people of color. How African Americans are falsely accused and imprisoned for crimes the police have no evidence they committed. Or how when crimes are committed and family and friends know the truth. They choose to protect the criminal disregarding their wrongdoings. I love how it brought light to real life situations.

Overall, this was an outstanding novel by Tamron Hall. I’m definitely looking forward to the next book in this series. I shouldn’t have to even say it but I RECOMMEND if you haven’t read it read or listen to it.
