I only finished because I wanted to get that child saved.  I won’t read any more of or about Joe Dillard; they’re too grizzly.

Last Resor
By Scott Pratt
Read by Tim Campbell 8h 20m
Rating: C / crime thriller 
(#10 in the Joe Dillard series)

  The violence to kids in Last Resort is not “in your face graphic,” but it’s a bit too close for my tastes, and not done very well, either. It’s not porn, but it’s about chasing traffickers who have a kidnaped a child. And then, to add insult, there’s some occult stuff thrown in. 

It might have been different had I read the books in order because Louise Penny gets into something like this in her later books but by the time I got to themt I was used to the characters and their relations that they were all just fine – nice people. With the Dillard books I never let that part of the story arc get developed and I have a suspicion it’s there.
