F Michael. Rachel and Lucy forever.

I think this might be the first thriller sequel I’ve read and surprisingly I like it. I enjoyed the first one (The Family Upstairs), but this one was even better!

Apparently this is a standalone sequel but I would highly recommend reading the first one. I don’t think I would love the good guys as much without knowing more about them.

Gripping and easy to lose yourself in and nowhere near predictable.

That was absolutely amazing! I had never read a thriller sequel before and wasn't sure what to expect but WOW that was sooooo good! I already gave 'the family upstairs' five stars but this one deserves 6 stars at least!!! 😜 I loved every minute of it and the ending was perfection. Definitely a highlight read of the year for me.
