Don’t Do It by Ozzie Logozzo opens dramatically in a secluded apartment where Detective Mike Watson stands over a brutally murdered young woman with the message DON’T DO IT etched on the wooden floor. The sight of the murder creates disturbing flashbacks for detectives Mike and Sarah. What seemed to be a murder turned into a serial killer case linked to other past cases. Mike's flashbacks keep haunting him as he carries on with the investigation. Going through Rebecca's case file, he found something odd: all the victims of these cases were young women. Mike and Sarah got some leads from Rebecca's diary, and they also found out that she was dating a man named David, who became the primary suspect. Mike's inability to separate his daughter's death from the current case keeps affecting him. A disturbing new suspect, “The Watcher," emerges from a writer's forum that Rebecca was enrolled in.
I was deeply moved by Mike's journey through grief. Watching him struggle with pain after Laura's death felt so real to me. I could feel his frustration, his anger, and his desperate need for answers. I love how the book exposes deep-seated corruption. I felt a profound sense of justice when their dark secrets were brought to light. I was also impressed with Sarah's courage, especially when she faced immense resistance. Her decision to risk her career by leaking information shows that some battles are worth fighting for the sake of justice. I loved the plot; the pacing was top-notch, and the characters were well developed, making the book feel like a movie. Don't Do It by Ozzie Logozzo explores themes of personal healing and the pursuit of justice against corruption. I recommend this book to readers who enjoy detective and crime fiction.
