#34: Cari Mora by Thomas Harris

A young woman tries to piece her life back together after being a child soldier, but house-sitting a mansion that happens to be sitting on a safe full of gold puts her in the crosshairs of some bad people in Thomas Harris' Cari Mora.

Harris is best known for his Hannibal Lecter novels, and often goes a long while between new releases.  This one is a bit of a surprise, much more of a straightforward, sardonic action piece than some of his more creepy-crawly and cerebral works.

But Harris still provides some nightmare fuel, largely in the form of an antagonist who has a side gig providing female slaves to disturbed clients. 

New Thomas Harris books are always welcome, and I enjoyed this one as well.  I checked this out from the New Castle-Henry County Public Library and read it quickly.
