Broken Dolls by BR Kingsolver

Private investigator RB Kendrick makes her living nailing cheating spouses, digging up other dirt to help in a divorce, finding long-lost relatives, and occasionally sniffing out criminal activity and fraud.

When she takes a job to find a missing girl, she has no idea she is headed for the most dangerous case of her career. Usually, her ability to read minds gives her an edge. But when the people she’s hunting are also telepaths, that advantage is limited.

The search takes her into the dark underbelly of telepathic society, where anything, and anyone, is for sale. She discovers that telepathic women and girls are being trafficked as the ultimate sex slaves.

With people trying to kill her, she’s on the run, not knowing who she can trust. Will she find the missing girl, or become a victim herself?

About the Author:

I made silver and turquoise jewelry for almost a decade, ended up in nursing school, then took a master’s in business. Along the way I worked in construction, as a newspaper editor, and somehow found a career working with computers.

I love the outdoors, especially the Rocky Mountains. I’ve skied since high school, with one broken leg and one torn ACL to show for it. I’ve hiked and camped all my life. I love to travel, though I haven’t done enough of it. I’ve seen a lot of Russia and Mexico, not enough of England and France. Amsterdam is amazing, and the Romanian Alps are breathtaking. Lake Tahoe is a favorite.

I have a very significant other, two cats and two Basset Hounds. I’m currently living in Baltimore, nine blocks from the harbor, but still own a home in New Mexico.

My Review

I will honestly have to say that I love everything about the book. But my favorite part was the title, Broken Dolls. I love how the author compared the young women and men that are coerced into selling their body as broken dolls. They are searching for something and someone to love them and they think they have no other choice but to sell themselves . They are so broken that they cannot find anything to fix it for them, so they fill the void with material things, people who think of them as possessions and endless sex with multiple people not concerning themselves with the consequences of their actions. I love how the main character RB is a product of an affair even those her mom is present in her life, her father is not. She can identify with how needy these young children are and in a sense it becomes her mission to save them.

I love the vast array of characters that she encounters during her search for one particular “broken doll”. The journey she takes keep the reader involved and more invested as we find out more about RB and all her abilities.  This is a must read book for anyone who loves suspense novels.
