Follow You Home

Daniel and Laura are going on the trip of a lifetime - travelling through Europe - before returning back to London to settle down and hopefully start a family. But their trip ends suddenly when they are thrown off a night train in the middle of nowhere after their passports and tickets are stolen. To get help they need to hike along the tracks, through a forest. Back in London the couple will not talk to anyone about that night in the forest. And their nightmare isn't over yet.

I am extremely disappointed in this book. I imagined much worse than what really took place. Of course what happened was bad, but other people had it worse. Every time the author would build things up it turned out to be anticlimactic. In the beginning there was too much about their lives back in London, telling everyone "I want to tell you what happened, but I can't" and not enough snippets of their time after being thrown off the train. I hated the epilogue. Really? You can live with that but you couldn't live with what you did in the forest?

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.

The cruel irony is that he just killed his three best friends with a simple text that said "Where are you guys? Text me back." 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
