Description

Murders or a series of coincidences?

Charlie is worried her ex-PI husband, Simm, is bored with his new role helping her manage their pubs in Montreal. Offered the chance to investigate the disappearance of a man the previous year, Charlie convinces Simm to take the case. Besides, a few days in the Gatineau region of Quebec might be the best thing for them and their relationship.

Charlie and Simm discover the case may involve a series of dubious vanishings that were written off as presumed drownings. They're drawn into a tangle of small-town relationships between long-time locals, wealthy summer residents, and a hermit with his own secrets.

Unfortunately, someone doesn't appreciate their efforts to meddle in the past. Is a serial killer at work? Was a fatal car accident somehow tied to the disappearances? Does Simm's family have a connection to the tragedies in the small town of Wakefield? Charlie and Simm need to tie up loose ends before they join the growing list of victims.

The Other Side: A Charlie & Simm Mystery is another fast-paced suspenseful novel with a twist. It reunites readers with characters introduced in Sins of the Fathers by award-winning author A.J. McCarthy.

Loved, loved, loved!!!! This really isn't like all the other thrillers I've come across. It completely got under my skin and I just flew through it in 2 days and loved every second of it. The characters are well written and don't rely on clichés or your standard thriller protagonist. It's an original story and has some really good twists and turns thrown in to keep you guessing

Love this mystery starring Charlie and Simm. Would love to read the previous books in the series and definitely interested in reading the next one since part of the story needs to be resolved. The mystery was engrossing, showed the partnership well, and I loved that it was set in Canada.
