What a great story. Reni Fisher and Detective Daniel Ellis undertake a new adventure in this, the latest book from Anne Frasier. Reni is a semi-retired profiler with a horrific past. She lives in an isolated little house in the desert. When she receives a phone call from Daniel about missing teenage girls and possible murders on a popular hiking trail.

They join together to get to the bottom of the story. They find one young woman shot to death in a camp with three tents, The other occupants - three of them - are missing. There are also a couple of hikers missing. A video goes viral. It is from the crime scene.

A subplot of this book is that Reni is still searching for Daniel’s mother even though he has asked her to stop.

When two of the girls are found, alive and relatively unhurt, the police are much relieved. But where is the third girl? And what about the missing hikers?

This is a pulse pounding story of terror and misadventure. There are some surprises in store for the reader as well. Reni and Daniel work very well together. They are both such kind people. It’s very ironic that they chose policing as a profession. This is a story about misdirection, lies and an intense investigation for a missing young girl. It’s a corker and I strongly recommend it for those who like police procedurals, thrillers or just a darn fine read.

I want to thank NetGalley and Thomas & Mercer for forwarding to me a copy of this absolutely wonderful book for me to read, enjoy and review. The opinions expressed here are my own.

Similar to it's predecessor, this sequel is relatively short and I'm still impressed with how AF manages to completely fill each page. This is a very complete installment that picks up where ‘Find Me’ leaves off.

While this technically could be read as a standalone, I would recommend reading the first book to truly understand the characters and their backgrounds. There is some development regarding character histories, so having that prior knowledge would be beneficial.

And while I enjoyed the pacing and character stories, I can't help but feel a little let down with the way certain events unfold. It's a bit too simplistic for my liking. While I think the straightforward narrative worked for the content of the first book, I think it actually gives away too much of the mystery too soon for this particular story.

But overall, a quick and entertaining investigation!

This is a pretty good mystery, love the setting and definitely liked this book. Would recommend

Thank you to Anne Frasier, NetGalley and Thomas & Mercer for the ARC of this book.

The desert setting drew me in then the story kept my attention. Read this in one sitting because I was sure I had figured out the mystery and I wanted to see if I was right. I wasn’t. There were a couple twists I didn’t see coming and made the story even better. The first book in this series is Find Me, this one is Tell Me so I expect Show Me to be on my TBR next.

This book was incredible. Lots of twists and turns. I love how Reni's mind works. The two main characters have grest personalities, are a little broken, a lot loyal and really good at their jobs. My heart broke for Daniel in this one, just like Reni in book one. I'm not gonna give spoilers, so not sure what else to say, other than this is a must read. Lots of plot points moving at same time, yet tracked well.
Told from both main characters POV. We get a HFN ending. No cliffhangers. Higjly recommend this book. I couldn't put it down.
