Tip the Piano Man - Rosetta Diane Hoessli

When little Piper Callaghan appears at Hope’s Home, too traumatized to speak after discovering her murdered mother’s body, Dr. Madison Wagner hopes to make the child’s possible father, writer Luke Callaghan, take responsibility for the bloody chaos he’s apparently created. For his part, Luke has his own story and refuses to be patronized.

But when they discover Piper is the victim of prominent citizens profiting from an online international child sex ring, Madison and Luke understand they’re in this fight together. And guiding them from beyond the grave is a murdered young mother seeking retribution…and atonement.

Madison and Luke must prevail against overwhelming odds, or their relentless pursuit of truth will hurtle them toward a shocking reality neither ever anticipated.

My Review

What a story this is. It left me both gripped and completely unsettled at the same time. This thriller deals with one of the most unsavoury and sick crimes, that of child molestation.
The book follows Madison, who runs a home for vulnerable children and Luke, who finds out after the death of his estranged wife that he has a daughter. Between them they grow closer as they discover all that Luke's daughter Pipper and other children have suffered at the hands of these evil characters.

This book won't be for everyone. It doesn't shy away from the terror and pain that children can and do suffer at the hands of such people. This is a story of evil. The darkest, purest and most horrifying evil. But of course, you can't help but read and find out if Madison and Luke can track down the men behind this.

Tip the Piano Man is a horrifying, yet gripping read. It's well worth a read.
