The bestselling authors of Yesterday’s Gone, Pretty Killer, and No Justice bring you a brand new unforgettable thriller that blends mystery and suspense into pulse-pounding, revenge-seeking, fast-paced thriller action.

Frank Grimm is a retired detective who breaks into his neighbors’ homes searching for clues to find the man who murdered his daughter. What was once an unrelenting obsession in solving a crime has turned into something else — Frank breaking and entering, vicariously living through their lives, searching for a connection to anything.

One day he finds something waiting for him — a letter from a teenage girl who knows what he’s doing. It also says one other thing:

“Help, my father is raping me. Please kill him.”

Frank must decide how far he’ll go outside the law to save a child from a monster.

But his former ally, detective Mallory Black, is tracking his every move — she believes he escaped justice once, and she is not going to let it happen again.

Detective and ex-detective find themselves on a collision course as their lives are torn apart by their obsessions for delivering justice, no matter the costs.

Hidden Justice is a new stand-alone thriller novel written within the King & Wright world of No Justice. Start reading your favorite new vigilante thriller right now!

My Review

I chose to read this book after receiving a free e-copy from Reedsy. All opinions in this review are my own and completely unbiased.

Poor Frank Grimm lost both his wife and daughter and the only thing that kept him going was the need to find his daughter’s murderer. At first, he was sure it was a neighbor who had killed her so he started breaking into their homes to find a clue. Later, he broke into their homes because he liked to know what was going on in their lives since there was nothing going on in his except sorrow, grief, and guilt. I felt sorry for Frank and could understand that it was difficult for him to move on but his obsession with the neighbors, especially since he didn’t like them, was so unhealthy!

I enjoyed the other characters on Frank Grimm’s cul de sac. They were all quirky (annoying?) in their own way, and I could see why he didn’t particularly care to talk to them.

Mallory Black and her partner, Mike, were detectives who worked on the murder of Frank’s daughter. Mallory was positive that Frank was the murderer and even though he was officially cleared, she continued to investigate and was obsessed with catching him before he murdered another girl.

I did not like Mallory’s obsession with Frank because of how it affected her family. It was interesting how much alike she and Frank were, and Frank learned his lesson too late. He now realized how important dinner time should be for a family; hopefully, Mal could learn that before it was too late for her family. Even though she thought she put her family first, her job always came first. She wasn’t even concerned with her daughter’s anxiety. She just wanted to get back to work! And to her, her husband’s job had little value compared to hers.

Hidden Justice is a psychological thriller that I couldn’t put down after the first quarter of the book once Frank met his new neighbor Freya. She needed his help, and he was determined to help her no matter what. The ending was perfect. I now have a whole new series I want to read!
