Cari Mora
Thomas Harris, Cari Mora (Grand Central Publishing, 2019)
Summary: The very definition of originality. A thrill ride through the Floridian criminal underworld, featuring mildly likable petty crooks, stone-cold assassins, and a monstrous villain.
Key Quote: "The crocodile did not dwell on eating humans, but with her prodigious memory for food and the locations of food, she did recall how refreshingly free humans were of hair and feathers and tough hide and horns and beaks and hooves. Unlike a pelican, which is more trouble than it is worth." - p. 254
Bottom Line: Read this book to escape for a couple nights into the darkest of worlds.
