Review of 'Corpse Flower' on 'LibraryThing'
A journalist in Copenhagen is contacted by a woman wanted for a sensational murder. The cryptic messages are hard to interpret, though there seems to be a story there. As she digs deeper, uncovering the connection between a powerful man and a child sex trafficking ring, she has to confront a trauma from her past and interview someone she never wanted to see again. This is a well-paced story with subject matter that some will find deeply unpleasant. I would give it a 4 for characters and pacing and a 3 for the plot itself, mainly because the sensational subject matter was not as carefully handled as I would like.
