Breaking the Girl
by Nia Malika Dixon
In a field dominated by men, overachieving, beautiful, and forthright homicide detective Cory Pritchard catches killers in sunny Los Angeles, CA.
She and her charismatic partner of five years, Brady MacCabe, are known for closing cases. There is no case they can’t solve. Until now. A series of brutal murders crops up and the killer skillfully eludes Pritchard and MacCabe, leaving no clues behind.
A slum lord and a strip club manager are the first two victims of what the killer calls “Reckoning.” Each murder weapon is labeled with the word reckoning, and left at the crime scenes, taunting detectives with no trace evidence.
Along with this, Cory’s ex-husband, former fellow police officer, Phillip Wolfe, won’t let her be. His behavior bordering on stalking, he’s determined to make her life miserable since she left him.

Her too-perfect-to-be-true boyfriend, actor Eric Taylor, has a few skeletons in his closet that are slowly coming to light as the investigation continues, and puts a strain on their relationship. Soon the killer engages Cory in a game of cat and mouse, following her, leaving notes in her home, and even invading her dreams. As the body count piles up, it becomes apparent that the killer is on a mission to punish those “deserving” retribution, and may very well be someone closer to Cory than she realizes.
Haunted by the unsolved murder of her mother twenty-five years ago, Cory Pritchard is hell bent on solving this case. And, with the anniversary of her mother’s death is fast approaching; Cory tries to mend the strained relationship she has with her widower father, best-selling novelist and Professor Emeritus at UCLA, Adam Pritchard.
Cory works diligently with Brady to solve the Reckoning Murders, while unofficially investigating her mother’s death, battling sexism at the precinct, and navigating the fragile relationships with the men in her life.
Can Cory catch the killer before it’s too late? Or will she go insane trying to catch someone who will not be caught?
