Summary
Rita Todacheene is a forensic photographer working for the Albuquerque police force. Her excellent skills have cracked many cases—she is almost supernaturally good at capturing details. In fact, Rita has been hiding a secret: she sees the
ghosts of crime victims who point her toward the clues that other investigators overlook.
As a lone portal to the living world for traumatized spirits, Rita is terrorized by nagging ghosts who won’t let her sleep and who sabotage her personal life. Her taboo and psychologically harrowing ability was what drove her away from the
Navajo reservation, where she was raised by her grandmother. It has isolated her from friends and gotten her in trouble with the law.
And now it might be what gets her killed.
When Rita is sent to photograph the scene of a supposed suicide on a highway overpass, the furious, discombobulated ghost of the victim—who insists she was murdered—latches onto Rita, forcing her on a quest for revenge against her
killers, and Rita finds herself in the crosshairs of one of Albuquerque’s most dangerous cartels. Written in sparkling, gruesome prose, Shutter is an explosive debut from one of crime fiction’s most powerful new voices.

the concept of this book is great. with a good editor, this could have been fantastic. narration was ok, but contributed to this book not flowing well. the storyline was disjointed, out of order and often didn't make sense in terms of one minute a character was leaving and then suddenly back with the people she had just left. this novel could be A+, but needs a qualified editor to help smooth out these inconsistencies. I definitely hope we will hear more from this author and this narrator.

Plot points introduced that go nowhere. Poor writing & lazy descriptions. A very un-mysterious mystery. I will never trust the National Book Award Long List again. I agree with the comment about this author needing a good editor.
