“The Doll Harvest” by Ron Savage
Published by Driven Press
Finished 9/15/16 – 4/5 stars
One can’t pick books based solely on a national best seller
list and expect to read all the great books out there. There are MANY more that don’t make that list
that are wonderful books. Honestly, I
don’t even follow those lists anymore. I’ve
never been into popularity contests anyway – I like what I like. And what do you know……I like “The Doll
Harvest” by Ron Savage. It might not
make it onto a list, but it is worth the read.
The cover of this book gives the impression that it would be
in the horror genre, but it’s not. So if
you are like me and don’t read horror, you’re safe with this one. It’s not a “who done it” either – you know
who the good and the bad are right from the start. It is suspenseful though and
does keep you reading later than you wanted because you don’t want to put it
down without knowing what happens next.
Luckily, the chapters are fairly short thus providing good stopping
points. It’s just a matter of actually
putting it down when you come to one.
There are a couple intertwined story lines in this book but the
main one focuses on the kidnapping of a young lady. She’s not taken for ransom money, or sex trafficking,
or even just for the pleasure of the kidnapper.
She’s taken to harvest her body parts to sell on the black market. Disturbing right? I hope to God there is no such thing in the
real world because it would be very scary to know there are doctors and
patients out there willing to pay whatever it takes for a body part, knowing it’s
not something you can just grow on a farm or in a lab (although that could be
the case in the future). They have to
come from someone…..someone who just died.
Thank you to Driven Press for providing me with a copy of
this book in return for an honest review.
I wish this author great success.
