The Widow

-
In the years since Bella's disappearance Glen Taylor's life had been a nightmare. He had been the main suspect in the kidnapping and murder of the little girl, but the police could never find actual proof that he had done it. His wife, Jean, always supported him and stood by his side. But she doesn't have to be the perfect wife anymore. Glen's dead. With all the reporters waiting outside her home she can tell the whole world her side of the story.

This book goes back and forth from Jean to Glen to Kate the reporter to DI Bob Sparkes. All these characters are flat. The story is dull and flat and boring. The ending was anticlimactic. The book started off good, but it just seemed like nothing really happened throughout the whole thing. A very disappointing and forgettable read that I struggled to get through.

DCI Erika Foster is called to a murder scene where the victim is found dead in bed with a plastic bag over his head. As DCI Foster and her team are looking for clues as to who could have committed the murder, another victim is found dead in bed with a plastic bag over his head. All they know at this point is that there is a calculated serial killer out there stalking the victims before going in for the kill. What could possibly link the victims to their killer? DCI Foster will do whatever it takes to find out. Another great book in the DCI Erika Foster series! It's well-written. It's descriptive, it's vivid, it's a page-turner. It has strong characters, great pacing. I can't say enough good things.

He blames himself but he's not the only one - Mars's father, who is also a judge, is pushing for a criminal investigation into Carver's actions. But Carver's not alone. He has supportive parents and a supportive older sister. He's become close with Eli's girlfriend Jesmyn. And Nana Betsy, Blake's grandma, is on his side. Nana Betsy suggests they spend a day together sharing their memories of Blake and to say a proper goodbye. The other families want Carver to spend a day with them as well, sharing a side of their son they never knew, but he's not sure it's a good idea especially when Mars's father tells him he wants to
