I would like to thank NetGalley for the opportunity to review this book even though I did not finish this book.

This was the second book in the series, and I haven't read the first book yet. I however feel that this one will read nicely on its own, and I don't think I've missed too much of the story line.
The book was well written, gripping from the beginning, and engaging the reader throughout the book. I loved the book, and can't wait to read the first one quickly, while waiting for a number 3.....
Well done!

This book was one of the few that I was unable to put down once I started it. This was my first occasion to read Pat Young and I was definitely not disappointed! She formed her characters into solid people with relatable backgrounds and made them as likable as can be. I have read a good few mystery novels and some just don't catch my attention - this was not one of them. I will be reading other books by Pat Young for sure!

What does it cost to do the right thing? It could cost you and your family their identity and a sense of security. Well developed characters and a story that makes you think twice before trusting people.

Pat Young's 'I know where you live' is a thrilling read and makes the reader do abit of soul searching along the way.

Penny and her husband Seth have a secret past which they would prefer no-one finds out about. Travelling to France with their two young children to work for six months they befriend a young woman at the airport, Sophie because intangled in their lives and eventually becomes their live in nanny. Everything runs smoothly until one day their two year old son is abducted whilst in Sophies' care. What follows will keep you glued to your chair right up until the last page.

On a side note after reading 'I know where you live' I discovered that this was it was a sequel to ‘Till the dust settles’. I don't feel I lost anything but not reading the first book but some people might prefer to read them order.

The story of an American couple with a secret, their two young children, the new nanny and a mysterious grandmother, set in France. An intriguing collection of characters and a story that raced along to an eventful ending!

I really enjoyed this book – it kept me gripped throughout. I didn't realise it was a sequel to Till the Dust Settles so there were a few bits that would have made more sense if I'd read that first. This didn't detract from an entertaining read, which I'd recommend to others.

Wow my heart is still racing at the ending of this book Pat Young has delivered a captivating novel that is both thrilling and soul searching.

Really worth reading.

fab read - good lead characters and scene setting - fast paced story and plot

A good suspenseful read that kept my attention throughout. It's an easy read and I enjoyed seeing how the story played out in the end.

Great book. I read this after Till the Dust Settles. It could be a stand alone but much better as a sequel. I really like this writer's style. The chapters flow into each other and keep you wanting to read more.

A very suspenseful clever story about a couple trying to start over, but afraid someone is watching them and their family and meaning them harm. I didn't realize this was a sequel, but though I wish I had read the first one before, it didn't make this book's story too difficult to follow. The writing is good, the pace quick and the plot intricate. Recommended!

I enjoyed this book, a great read. Kept me turning the pages and not wanted to stop until I got to the end.

It wasn’t until I finished this book that I realised it was a sequel to ‘Till the dust settles’. Well, having thoroughly enjoyed ‘I know where you live, I can safely say it works well as a stand-alone book where one does not have to have read the first book! Having said that, whilst reading the book I thought several times (on learning more about two of the lead characters the mother and father ‘Penny and Seth’) “wow, what an interesting life they have lead before we met them!’. So, I will certainly now be buying the first book.
The story centres around Penny Seth and their two children who move from the US to France for six months for Seth’s work. Unbeknownst to them, a lot of planning has been taking place behind the scenes and what they have thought would be an opportunity to spend happy time together as a family in a foreign country may not be so idyllic if those working against them get their way.
It is an exciting thriller with a real sense of pace. Another book where I couldn’t wait for it to be bedtime so I could start reading again! 😁📚🛌
Thanks to NetGalley for a Kindle copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Well written book. Held my attention from beginning to end. Look forward
to reading more from this author.

Sequels are a hit or miss.

I remember loving Till the Dust Settles. You can find my review here. The way the author had put such a horrific day in our history all around the center of her story and created characters strong enough to make you believe and feel.

So what about the ten years later?

A new life for our main character. I was so happy to meet with Penny again. It was as though I was meeting an old friend after so long. Ten years? Despite the changes in name and life in general, Penny hasn’t lost her old self, it clings to her despite everyone’s efforts to create a new woman. The wife and mother, the happy and totally normal person who has been under police protection since 2001. The author’s choice to portray her main character filled with fear, struggling, doing her best, looking over her shoulder, everything was spot-on and I was relieved Penny’s new name hadn’t completely erased her old self. Because no matter what had happened in the aftermath of September 11th, I had grown to like her and I was hoping to spend more time with her.

I was not disappointed! Busy Penny, scared as she may be, trusting a stranger so easily was very strange, especially when it came to her kids, but for having felt this sort of connection to someone I did not know, I glossed over it. There was the perfect dose to make me believe in what was happening. And most of all, it brought another very interesting character to the story!

Sophie. What to say about her? Her youth made me smile, her way with kids was impressive, don’t ever leave me with children alone, please. It was a pleasure to pick up some French here and there as I discovered Carcassonne with the little family + 1! I knew something was off and I just couldn’t wait for the chase to start!

I love it when protagonists have more than one face, one motive, one train of thoughts. Seth, lovely husband, reacting like a real human, not a weird robot going from the perfect husband to an absolute twat in two pages. Penny, worried but happy, holding on to secrets and fears, trying to live with them. Kids being kids. And bad people being more than just bad people.

Child abduction is tricky to write about. You don’t want to go too far, you want to take your reader a certain way but if the writing doesn’t deliver, it fails. Well, I Know Where You Live did NOT fail! My heart cried with parents looking for their cutie Ethan while my brain was running every possibility to find out who was the culprit! There weren’t real twists to the story, and this is a point that amazes me. The read is addictive without the need of pure tension at all time created by OMG cliffhanger chapters. The pages are somehow filled with electricity and you just have to wait for the big explosion.

Yes, this book is different from the first one. You can’t compare, you can only enjoy the fact the author brilliantly managed to create another case of “intense, gut-wrenching, powerful and compelling thriller served by genuine, terrific, and most of all “human” characters.” (Yep, quoting myself here :p)

I just finished "I Know Where You Live" by Pat Young and I enjoyed this book so much! This book is a very plot-driven, quick read. Once I started, I had a hard time putting the book down because there truly weren't any slow points where I was waiting for the story to move forward. The pace of this story is quick and engaging.

Also, I found out after I started this book that it actually involves a partial follow-on to a story told in a previous book. I worried that since I didn't read the first book, I may not understand some of the plot points--but that wasn't the case at all! This book really isn't a sequel. It stands completely on its own as a novel, and the events from the other book--though related--aren't really the point of this book.

This novel tells the story of Penny and her husband Seth. They live in Texas, but decide to make the move to France for a great career opportunity for Seth. Penny thinks the move will be good for their two kids and for Seth. But Penny also has ulterior motives for wanting the move--motives that she hasn't told her family about.

Penny believes she is being watched, and she thinks she knows why...

As Penny, Seth, and their two young children are waiting to fly to France, they meet a young woman named Sophie. Sophie instantly charms the little Gates family. She is traveling to France to seek out work as an Au Pair, and to hopefully find her father who left when she was quite young. Sophie is young, fun, and great with kids. She is also fluent in French--something the Gates family is not. As the family and Sophie grow closer, hiring Sophie as their Au Pair seems like a dream come true.

But then one day, while Sophie is caring for the younger child, Ethan, he goes missing...

It is every parent's worst nightmare--living in a foreign country, not speaking the language, and unable to find their child. Sophie says she left him for just a quick moment, and in that time he vanished. The Gates go to the police, who encourage them to use the media to spread the word. Someone must have seen Ethan! But the Gates are hesitant. They don't want to go to the media. You see, the Gates are not who they say they are, and doing what they need to do to find their child may mean revealing their true selves to the world.

The Gates are hiding their identity, but who else is hiding something?

I highly recommend this book, and plan to put it on a list of novels that I recommend to post-graduate readers. The setting in France (and a few other places that you'll see when you get into the story) are fun to read about. The plot moves quickly. Pat Young also uses the tool of alternating perspectives. We see things from Penny's point of view, Sophie's point of view, and a mysterious third person's point of view. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves a mystery and the thrill of a fast-paced, secret-driven novel.

There were times when both Sophie and Penny had these incredible moments of reflection and introspection. At first I enjoyed the plot immensely, but didn't necessarily feel a strong connection with any characters. However, as the story progresses, the way the women in this novel have a raw moment of clarity on their lives, or their actions--these really drew me in. By the end, I truly felt for these characters and had a range of emotions about their story progressions.

I want to express my gratitude to NetGalley, Pat Young, and Bloodhound Books for a copy of this novel in exchange for a fair and honest review.

A really good read, which kept you wondering about the motive. I hadn't realised that it was the second one in the series. A shame I missed the first.

I really enjoyed this book with it's twists and turns. I was stunned to find out after reading this that it is a sequel to Till the Dust Settles. It worked on it's own and felt like I didn't miss anything. If have read Till the Dust Settles, you will love this one. For me (because I was not aware it was a sequel), it left me with a few questions but not to the point where I was unable to follow the story. Now that I know, I do recommend reading Till the Dust Settles, beforehand. Good read.

I Know Where You Live is the newest novel by author Pat Young. Her debut novel, Till The Dust Settles, also published by Bloodhound books, and hit stores in July 2017. This second book is a follow up to her first novel. When I read the initial blurb for I Know Where You Live, I was immediately interested in this fast paced thriller.

I did not know that this was, in fact, a sequel, and I wish I’d had the opportunity to read Till The Dust Settles first. My recommendation is to read the first book first. While this second novel does work as a stand alone, I feel I would have enjoyed it more having read the first book. I did feel like I was missing some information and it was only after I’d finished I realized why. As I was reading, I felt like there was a lot of back story being left out by the author and it was a bit confusing. The references to the characters mysterious past was frustrating when I never got the whole story. Reading Till The Dust Settles would have alleviated this and helped tremendously.

About the book:

Penny and Seth Gates have left their troubled past behind and started a new life in Texas, complete with new names, as part of the witness protection program. Things seem to be going well for the couple until Penny starts to get the feeling that she is being watched. Scared for herself, Seth, and their two children, Penny urges Seth to jump at an opportunity through his job to move to France for a few months. Penny hopes putting some further distance between them and their past will help alleviate her fears. She’s wrong.

When the Gates family meets a young woman in the airport on their way to France, Penny hopes the logistical problems of moving to a new country will be solved. Sophie is a perfectly charming young lady who speaks fluent French, and is great with their kids, Angel and Ethan. Penny agrees to hire Sophie as a live in nanny for the kids and to help them all navigate living in France. More than once Penny and Seth were amazed at their luck in finding Sophie so unexpectedly and thought she was too good to be true. They were right. Meeting Sophie was no accident and trusting her puts them all in danger.

Sophie has been hired to befriend the Gates family by a mysterious woman who calls herself Miss L. Sophie answered Miss L’s ad in a local paper for an au pair in France. Excited about being able to travel abroad, she eagerly jumps at this seemingly perfect opportunity. Miss L later informs Sophie that she is the estranged grandmother of Angel and Ethan and is traveling to France in hopes of Sophie making it possible for her to meet her grandchildren. Sophie finds out too late that Miss L is not who she claims to be. When Ethan disappears, Sophie finds herself in the middle of an international search for a missing child.

I Know Where You Live is a true page turner and you’ll be flying through to figure out exactly who Miss L is and what she wants from Penny and Seth Gates. It hits every note for what makes a great domestic thriller.

Netgalley generously gave me the chance to read this book in exchange for a review. It wasn’t until I finished reading the novel, did I find out this title is the sequel to “Till the Dust Settles.” Still, it worked well as a standalone and I didn’t feel like I missed anything.

Penny jumps at the chance to move to Europe when her husband is offered a job in France. Then she feels a little hesitant because her family is taking up residence in a new country where she doesn’t know the language at all. Coincidentally, Penny’s family meets young Sophie in the airport waiting area. Sophie is looking for a job and she speaks French fluently. After a few days sightseeing together Penny hires her as an au pair.

But then her toddler son, Ethan, is abducted while under Sophie’s watch. What happened? Was Sophie negligent? I’m going to let you find out. The book is currently available for purchase.

This psychological thriller keeps humming along. The conundrum the family faces is relatable and real. Most of the characters are very likeable, the villain is not. I urge you to try Pat Young’s books. I’m sure you’ll enjoy them.
