Soon they arrive at the large mining operation populated by hordes of potential unsubs with rap sheets as long as her arm, and it quickly becomes apparent that no one wants either of them there. She is also paired with Edward Whittacker, a partner she wasn’t told about and who she suspects has been put there as her watchdog, and the mere idea of it irks her. In an effort to keep her out of the media spotlight as her brother is detained, she’s sent from Sydney to the Never Never, a desolate place in the Australian outback, where she must shift her focus from family to finding out what is happening to a growing list of missing persons. Since her own brother has just been arrested as the Georges River Killer, something she would never have suspected, she has a very good reason to be angry. A skilled boxer in the ring, Blue can typically hold her own against any attacker, and she harbors an inner rage that needs to be focused. Also, like Boxer, Blue is a flawed character, which makes her all the more authentic. Similar to Lindsay Boxer of his Women’s Murder Club series, she doesn’t take flack from anyone and is happy to challenge the “glass ceiling” in all aspects of her life.
She’s the top investigator in the Sex Crimes unit and is one of the feistiest characters he’s created. Detective Harry Blue is James Patterson’s newest protagonist.
