This is a fabulous story with intrigue missing girls strange behaviour it will have you on the edge of your seat chewing your nails and not having clue as to who is behind everything. The setting is just perfect for this romantic suspense story the characters are so real they come to life on the pages it is emotional, moving and scary. The banter between Cam and Ally will have you smiling as will the strength and courage that Cam helps Ally to show, throw in the other characters Cam's sister Ebony, Ally's sister Mia and Cam's friend Lee and Ben the cop from Sydney and this story will have you turning the pages and not wanting to put it down. I highly recommend this story it really is one not to be missed written beautifully you will feel as if you are at Hunters Ridge with them all and as this is the first one of a trilogy I can't wait to read the others. Thank you very much MS Barrie for hours of reading please again this is one that will be read more than once and will have a spot on my keeper shelf.
