My favourite ever sequel to any book. The first Anne Frasier book in the series had me itching for more- one of the strongest debuts around and this is book is everything you wanted and more.

4.5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️



- easy and readable story . This book is actually great for young adult and not a big fan but to be honest I love the story written here and to be honest it’s a bit rushed.

Reni and Daniel are back in this second book of the series, and I enjoyed this more than the first. The mystery aspect could have been a little more complex, but it was good escapism. Anne Frasier is always good for a few hours of entertainment. This is a series, but I feel this book can stand on its own.

Tell Me is #2 in the Inland Empire series. Tell Me picks up after the events of book #1 (Find Me), with Detective Daniel Ellis and criminal profiler Reni Fisher investigating the disappearance of several young hikers in California. Reni is also still doing some investigating of her own into the disappearance of Daniel's mother, without his knowledge or consent. I enjoyed this creepy thriller as much as the first book in the series and hope that there are many more books to come. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for my digital copy of Anne Frasier's book.

What starts out as a group of social media addicted girls on a retreat soon goes to murder and kidnappings… or was it? Very much enjoyed this title. Anne has been a favorite or mine for years and loved digging into another Reni and Daniel story!

This one wasn't really my cup of tea, I didn't love the characters and I wasn't engrossed. It had some good elements and might be perfect for someone....just not me :)

I really enjoyed this book! It was a good continuation of the first in the series. The book has great character development, so you really feel like you get to know the characters and care about what happens to them. The entire atmosphere of the book was great and the mystery aspect was intriguing. I would definitely recommend this book (as well as the first in the series).

I love Anne Frasier for her ability and capacity to understand pain - the invisible bounds that can influence and capture our souls. That (and the portion of thrill of her cases) is the reason for me to be captivated by her again and again. She understands what brokenness is and how long and windy is the road to overcome it (if this is even possible). Because pain is so often the very realistic grounds for the crimes to happen - and moreover, the source of sleuthing and solution, as the ones solving the crimes might be good at their jobs siply because they use their own pain for good.

The case here is not the strongest, I admit. Interesting, possible...but it could be even strongest with heftier logical backup.
But having said that, I was reading happily (as the mysteries are my way of out the sad reality of these days) and was engaged the whole reading time. This is not a small accomplishment in my books.

This is the second book in the Inland Empire Series. Pretty good next in the series as far as that goes.

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the eGalley. All opinions are my own.

Anne Frasier is a favorite author of mine. This is the second book in a series (first book Find Me). I absolutely loved this book. The characters are really well written. Former FBI criminal profiler, Reni Fisher, and Detective Daniel Ellis are back, a few months after the first book. I recommend reading the first, but you could start with this one and be fine.

At a campsite on California’s Pacific Crest Trail, a guide is murdered and three young hikers vanish without a trace. The only lead is a puzzle in itself: a video of the crime scene, looking eerily staged, uploaded to social media. The girl who posted it can’t be found. Is it a viral hoax gone unspeakably wrong, or is there something more sinister at play in the forest?

The case intensifies when one of the missing is found wandering down a dirt road, confused and afraid. As Reni and Daniel struggle to sort fact from fiction, a secret past collides with the present, threatening to sever their relationship.

Tell Me is the second book in the Inland Empire series and I would recommend reading the first book to have a better understanding of the two main characters, Reni and Daniel.

A bizarre crime scene and missing girls leads Daniel to reach out to Reni for assistance. Is it an elaborate prank to gain internet fame or are the girls in danger? Reni and Daniel race the clock to find the girls before it is too late.

I really enjoyed this one! It was fast paced and I love the authors writing style. It did slow down a bit in the middle but overall I look forward to more books in this series.

This book had me hooked from page one! I read book 1 a while ago so I was worried about getting back into it but had no trouble. Would definitely recommend!

A great read with a unique story that manages to perfectly combine mystery, suspense, and police procedural in just the right page turning combinations.

I hadn't read the previous book in the series, but from the beginning it was clear that the main characters, Reni Fisher and Daniel Ellis, were living through the aftermath of life altering events that had left them very shaken and of which they were still trying to recover.

Reni's strategy so far seemed to have involved seeking refuge at the edge of civilization, in the desert, spending her days painting landscapes with the sole company of her dog, but, then, a group of girls went missing while hiking on California’s Pacific Crest Trail and the detective sought her help to try to find them before it was too late.

What followed was an enjoyable police procedural, but one more focused on the characters than on any crime, where we witnessed how the protagonists struggled to get on their feet in spite of their traumas, to help the missing girls and, perhaps, while doing it, learn how to deal with what had happened to them.

I felt the characters were the strongest point of the book and what I enjoyed the most about it, even though I'm sure that I would have been even more invested on them if I had read the previous instalment.

That said, after finishing the book I felt it had been too short and that I would have liked a little more focus put on the mystery, with perhaps a more suspenseful atmosphere that took advantage of the desolate setting...

I'm really curious about how the series will progress and I would love to know more about the characters and how they'll use what they learnt about themselves!

I'd recommend this book to fans of Jane Harper and Robert Bryndza.

A very wholesome mystery - Tell Me has got it all. Excellent setting, an intriguing plot, interesting characters and writing that ties it all together.
Absolutely riveting read.

I enjoyed reading this book and discovering what happened and who did it. It was written well, made me love the scenery, and delivered the characters really well.

This was my first by this author. I believe it was a second in a series, however I was able to read and follow the story without any problems whatsoever.

I really enjoyed the character building. Strong, realistic and likable main characters. A strong and sadistic antagonist. This was very much a story of an incel turned killer.

Enough twists and turns to keep the reader guessing. The setting was desolate, beautiful and dangerous. Strong story with strong characters.

This is a hard one to review. The premise is different, I think, but it's a bit predictable. That being said, it was still a page-turner for me, and I hated when I had to put it down to do anything else. Some parts of the story were weird to me, but I can't really put my finger on why. Overall, I did enjoy this one, and I like that it has audio on the Kindle Unlimited version. I will definitely read the next one.

Thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for a copy of the ARC.

I really enjoyed this book! I loved the first one and found that the sequel was equally as compelling! I'd been looking forward to this since the first book and enjoyed how Reni and Daniel joined forces to solve the case while also coping with their past traumas. Definitely would recommend for crime lovers.

As always Anne Frasier leaves me sitting on the edge of my seat swiping page to page needing to see where these brilliantly written characters take me next. This sequel, rose to the occasion and I just loved following Reni and Daniel thru the dessert in search of missing girls and a killer. While this book wrapped up this crime it also laid to rest little leftovers from the first book Find Me. I’m not ready to say good bye to this desert set storyline, but I’m always excited for AF’s next read.
