The Trapped Girl (Tracy Crosswhite 4)
What you need to know before your trail
When a woman’s body is discovered submerged in a crab pot in the chilly waters of Puget Sound, Detective Tracy Crosswhite finds herself with a tough case to untangle.
Before they can identify the killer, Tracy and her colleagues on the Seattle PD’s Violent Crimes Section must figure out who the victim is. Her autopsy, however, reveals she may have gone to great lengths to conceal her identity. So who was she running from?

Washington state
Puget Sound
This is the large expanse of water where the fisherman takes out his boat in the early hours one morning to illegally capture crabs. Schill feels the chill of the forty-six degree Puget Sound through his rubber boots.” The water is pitch black and Schill sails his boat towards Blake Island in the middle of the water ” a small black hump rising out of the water.” this is a raw, visceral yet naturally beautiful environment. As a crime scene, it’s difficult as the body is found and the water has obviously done its damage.
There is a great deal dredged up here and its’s not just the debris with the crab pots.
Mount Rainier
Mount Rainier is the highest mountain of the Cascade Mountain Range and also the highest mountain in the state. It’s where the victims is thought to originate from. An impressive place to visit
It rains a lot in Portland apparently which one character gives as a good point as it means he doesn’t have to give a reason why he wants to stay in his apartment and reads. Portland seems to have lost its identity in some ways however though as apparently rents are going through the roof and newspapers are lamenting how the city is losing its identity as long term residents are being forced out. There are changes to the city at large here as well – city officials are thinking about letting the city’s medical marijuana dispensaries to sell to recreational users. Portland is one city with the most it is said here. The rust coloured Broadway Bridge spanning the Willamette river is the gateway to the city.
Booktrailer Review
Susan: @thebooktrailer
The trapped girl is a good title for this book as it’s exactly how I felt when reading it. I was trapped from page one and did not want to move. What a story and what a twist! The first chapter pushes you right in that water into that crab pot and then as it draws the victim out, it draws you in to the action even further.
This is the shockingly the forth in the series so slap my hands I now have 3 more to read. A nice treat for me. This doesn’t spoil your enjoyment of this book at all however. No sir.
A woman found in a crab pot who might not actually be dead? What?? This ovel messes wih your head in a good way and it was a thrilling read from start to finish. It’s quite complicated in places as you get as tangled as that poor woman in the mesh of the crab pots but never does it get overly so or confusing as a result.
The setting, the raw natural landscape and the mercy of the people to the elements was a neat touch and made for some really good characters I just got on board with immediately . The police team are a strong unit, characters are well fleshed out (sorry) and the storyline concerning facial reconstruction and suchlike is just fascinating.
