All Good Deeds (Lucy Kendall #1)

Lucy Kendall lived her life in a strange mixture of carefully calculated moves and impulse decisions. Cracking the skull of the man who molested her sister and attacking her was impulse. Spending half her teenage years drinking and acting out were calculated cries for attention from her narcissistic mother followed by impulsive rages at her lack of concern. The decade spent working in Child Protective Services before becoming a private investigator taught her two truths. One, CPS failed miserably in protecting children. Two, Lucy was more than willing to do it for them, meting out her brand of dark justice in spite of her own fear of death. But Lucy's crusade is compromised when a self-proclaimed sociopath offers to help-and leaves her no choice but to accept it. When eight-year old Kailey Richardson is abducted, it sets off a chain of events linked to Justin Beckett, a suspect in a life-changing case in Lucy's past. The path she's chosen since dealing with Beckett has been dark and terrifying-but she has no idea just how deep she will go or where the twisted road will take her. She's about to find out.


Review: I loved All Good Deeds and can't wait to read more about Lucy Kendall and how she balances the scales of justice by killing men who sexually hurt children. Her character reminds me so much of the Dexter character who was a serial killer who only killed bad people it blows my mind. And just like Dexter fans readers have to love and respect Lucy for what she is doing because she is truly killing people who deserve to die and I believe that is why I am going to get totally wrapped up in this character and series
As for this this book I loved the twist and turns that kept you guessing until the very end. I can honestly say I had no idea who took the little girl until the very end and then when the truth came out I was like nice. Then the rest of the action in the book especially how Lucy had to reevaluate her entire thought process about Justin, the person whose freedom made her into the vigilante killer that she had become was very thought-provoking and well written. Overeating, the entire book was excellent but I don't want to get get into that much because of spoilers I will just highly recommend this book to be read.
With all that said I am giving this book five out of five stars.
