WhoDunnits: A Mystery Book Group – Reflections in a Dragon’s Eye by Bradley Harper

This month, WhoDunnits will be reading Reflections in a Dragon’s Eye by Bradley Harper

Sgt. William Mankiller and his rookie partner, Det. Maria Esperanza Ruiz, work a frustrating case involving missing women in Baltimore, with scant evidence to go on. Mankiller and Ruiz’s only lead is a washed-up, drunk ex-boxer who once went toe-to-toe with Sugar Ray Leonard. A man now talking about a dragon. How can they probe and interpret the memories of a drunkard? How far can they—should they—push the old man to find out what he thinks he saw while in the cocoon of a bottle?

The paths of the witness, the cops, and the murderer will inevitably collide if what is right stands in the way of saving the next life. Set in the streets and around the waters of Baltimore and perfect for fans of James Patterson, Stuart MacBride, and Michael Connelly, this atmospheric police thriller posits how far the ends should justify the means.

WhoDunnits is a discussion group devoted to mysteries of all kinds and meets the first Tuesday of every month.
