A Final Call is the second book and a fast-paced suspense thriller with Stacy Tavitt as the main as the character. Code for murder being the first. This story has more twists and turns than I had hoped for.
As the story unfolds, we are told some of the back story of Stacy which explains her health issues. Stacy is drawn into a case about a missing son, Colton, of a former college friend. Reluctantly, she agrees to help only to find out that Colton may be part of a murder as well as other crimes.

This book is a fast-paced story easily read in an afternoon. It goes from one police call to the next before the story is finished. I wished I had read the first book before this one. It would have given me a better grasp on Stacy and her relationships with her family and her co-workers.

A FINAL CALL opens with a romantic meeting turning into a confusing, terrifying nightmare. In another location a SWAT team heads out on a perilous operation. Efforts to solve an agonizing mystery lead to frantic turmoil in search of connections to these incidents. This baffling conundrum is like assembling a 10,000 piece puzzle without the picture. As the pieces come together there's harrowing suspense and impenetrable, intrigue which lea to heart-racing, action packed scenarios and a dynamite explosive finish!

HOLY WOW! Talk about an underrated book! I have never heard anyone talk about this book via recommendation or review before and I am lost as to why?!

A Final Call by Eliot Parker is the second book in a series, which even without reading the first book, I was to still receive enough background on the main character, Stacy.

This thriller is a fast-paced page turner, that follows a homicide detective, Stacy Tavitt, who is contacted by a former classmate to help find her missing son, Colton.

There are non-stop twists and turns in this book, especially at the ends of the chapters, leaving you intrigued to keep on reading to find out what happened. Not only is this book great because of the gripping suspensefulness, but also the way the story is written, the character development/relationships, the graphic details of some of the events that occur, and the ending — how it all comes together, are the reasons for the overall rating I am giving for this book.

I received this as an ARC from NetGalley for a review

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in return for an honest review.

A Final Call by Eliot Parker was a great thriller. Stacey is in a race against time to prove her brothers innocence all while tracking a vicious killer.

I enjoyed this book. It was fast with twists and turns and something new happening all the time.

An interesting start to a mystery-thriller series, it captivated my attention. Stacy Tavitt is a detective in the Cleveland Homicide Department but is emotionally and physically scarred because of the disappearance of her brother in her last investigation. She is brutal and set on finding out what happened to her brother and her rash decisions sometimes affect her teammates who are also concerned about her well-being.

Adding more to her plate is the insistence of her old classmate, who calls upon her to investigate the disappearance of her son, but as she investigates the case, she begins to think that her classmate is withholding information about her son as he has become a suspect in his ex-girlfriend death. Along with her missing brother and her missing classmate’s son, she also faces another threat, a killer that is targeting Colton’s family and friends.

This is the first book I read in the series; it was quite fascinating. I would say I enjoyed the novel, there were a lot of surprises, and I was not anticipating the ending. I would really hope to get a copy of the next novel in this series.

I liked the characters, they were well written, I also liked the relationship between Stacy and her co-workers, especially that of her partner Austin Cerrera. This was a fast-paced story, which attracted my interest. I would say Eliot Parker has amazing writing skills because A Final Call was full of many twists.

I would recommend this novel, it is an exciting mystery/thriller, you will enjoy it. I rate this novel 4 out of 5 stars.

I was not expecting how quickly you got thrown into the mix. BUT I LOVED IT! Romantic meeting turned nightmarish as a young man travels to meet his online dream girl. Suddenly the bodies are piling up around him. 

This book keeps you strapped in from the first moment, whips you through the twists and turns, and leaves you reeling at the end. A Final Call is a seriously underrated novel; and is the second in a series that follows Detective Stacy Tavitt. I found it was easy to follow along if you haven't read book one. I will definitely be reading this series!

I was given an ARC of this story to read; but thoughts and opinions are all my own. Thank you to NetGalley and Eliot Parker for the chance to read this book!

I am going to preface this review with it was a really good story but I would have really enjoyed it more if I had read/listened to the first one. It can be read as a standalone but like me you would probably struggle a bit with the back story. I didn't realise until half way through that there was a first book in the series so going back to read that as I really want to know the full story. There were so many unusual plot lines and the lung issue these were all unique and given how many books I read/listen to this kept me on edge and wanting to follow - so well done.

I was given a free copy by netgalley and the publishers but the review is entirely my own.
