The trilogy centers around a team of FBI agents who work to solve crimes against children, and, over the course of the trilogy, readers are drawn into both their personal and professional lives.
It can feel like a big commitment to start a new series, but if you’re in the market for one to add to your summer reading list, Hutchison’s Collector Trilogy is a must. Now, as the investigation draws her deeper into the dark, Mercedes is beginning to fear that if this case doesn’t destroy her, her memories might. And each one taking its toll on her life and career. Each one chafing at Mercedes’s own scars from the past. Each one a traumatized survivor of an abusive home. One by one, more children arrive at Mercedes’s door with the same horror story. An avenging angel is meting out savage justice, and she’s far from through. It was a slaughter-a rage kill like no one on the Crimes Against Children team had seen before. He tells her a chilling tale: an angel killed his parents and then brought him here so Mercedes could keep him safe. When Agent Mercedes Ramirez finds an abused young boy on her porch, covered in blood and clutching a teddy bear, she has no idea that this is just the beginning. This FBI agent has come to expect almost anything-just not this… A disturbing plot, a strong female lead, page-turning writing… THE SUMMER CHILDREN is a knockout. This is a far cry from your standard serial killer thriller, but fans of the genre will find much to love in Hutchison’s binge-worthy and emotional THE SUMMER CHILDREN. THE SUMMER CHILDREN rounds out this trilogy in top form readers might remember that I had mixed feelings about the trilogy’s second installment, THE ROSES OF MAY, but never fear-Hutchison more than lived up to my expectations with her slam-dunk of a series finale. Comprised of THE BUTTERFLY GARDEN, THE ROSES OF MAY, and THE SUMMER CHILDREN, the Collector Trilogy delivers character-driven, often quite gruesome, totally addictive suspense-and perhaps best of all, each book within the trilogy retains a style and tone unique unto itself. It’s been quite a while since I discovered a new-to-me crime series I love as much as Dot Hutchison’s Collector Trilogy. The Verdict: an addictive, character-driven serial killer thriller THE SUMMER CHILDREN by Dot Hutchison (Collector Trilogy, Book 3)
