1. Do you enjoy supernatural horror thrillers?
2. Are you a fan of Stephen King, think Firestarter?

If you answered yes to the above questions, then you absolutely must read this novel!

This dark addictive thriller will have you hooked, with great protagonists, and unlikeable villains, shades of Stephen King, brutal with the right amount of emotion, this is one hell of a great read!

I really enjoyed Youers previous novel, Halcyon, but I thought this one was even better and has cemented Youers as a ‘must-read’ author!

*My thanks to the publisher for the review copy*

This was an awesome novel! It more than met my expectations and I truly enjoyed it. I've never read Youers before, but after this I'll definitely be adding him to my list of authors to watch! I am so glad I was able to pick this up.

The plot was so interesting and unique. I can't say I've ever read anything quite like this. There is so much life, and death, in The Forgotten Girl. I found myself thinking about this story even when I wasn't reading, and there were several times I kicked myself for not bringing it along with me to read in my downtime.

The characters were so real and the writing actually made me feel I was in the room with them dodging bullets and engaging in high speed car chases! Even the secondary characters were so well written and captivating.

It is such a page-turner and I urge you to pick this up as soon as possible! It will surprise you in the best way.
