The Butterfly Garden (The Collector, #1)

by Dot Hutchison

Lauren Ezzo (Narrator) and Mel Foster (Narrator)

"Near an isolated mansion lies a beautiful garden. In this garden grow luscious flowers, shady trees...and a collection of precious butterflies -- young women who have been kidnapped and intricately tattooed to resemble their namesakes. Overseeing it all is the Gardener, a brutal, twisted man obsessed with capturing and preserving his lovely specimens. When the garden is discovered, a survivor is brought in for questioning. FBI agents Victor Hanoverian and Brandon Eddison are tasked with piecing together one of the most stomach-churning cases of their careers. But the girl, known only as Maya, proves to be a puzzle herself. As her story twists and turns, slowly shedding light on life in the Butterfly Garden, Maya reveals old grudges, new saviors, and horrific tales of a man who would go to any length to hold beauty captive. But the more she shares, the more the agents have to wonder what she's still hiding -- back cover.

I am too character driven for this kind of book I think. too many side characters tray should be important, you know the mc makes it out because of how the story is told so there is no real anxiety for her (not that she doesn't go through hell) and ... idk, it really read like someone telling you a story.

Books like this makes me yearn for minus rating on goodreads.

Took me longer then I wanted to finish this, but it was amazing!! Review to come. Heartbreaking, tragic, disturbing. Reminded me a bit of Hannibal without the cannibal part.
