Lost Girls by Angela Marsons
5.0
I have to admit I did not think this series could get any better but it just did. I have to say I am greatly amazed (triple, triple WOW!!) at how Angela seems to be able to keep throwing out top class thrillers. Anyone who read my review of Evil Games (book 2) knew I (thought!) had found my book of 2015. However, with a month to go Anglea has only gone and topped that with another fantatstic novel. This author sure knows how to spin a story into an unforgettable thriller, with twists and turns galore to back up the suspense which was just relentless. Being a local to the area, I could literally place the story in my mind and follow every scene and know exactly how it looked.
This book seemed to focus more on developing Kim and Dawson. With Kim getting out of her comfort zone to try and bring home two abducted 9 year olds and the mother of one of the girls happens to be a part of Kim's life from her youth in a children's home. We also get to see an insight into Dawson's younger life and how easily it is to be manipulated into joining a gang. As always Bryant was there to help Kim stay on track. Sometimes I see him as her conscience in helping keep others on side.
And the ending was just absolutely brilliant. Whilst I saw the fate of what happened to Suzie before the book reveal I had absolutely no clue about one of the antagonists. I have even searched back through my mind since finishing the book last night and just can't even put my finger on any clue or hint that was in the book.
And at last I think romance may be on the cards for DI Stone!!! :)
This can be read as a stand alone book but I would highly recommend you read this series from the beginning just to get the background on Kim's character.
All in all, I feel that 5 stars dos not do ths book justice since I gave book 1 and 2 the same rating and each time the series just gets better. Fingers crossed Angela that this continues for the remaining novels. I for one am eagerly awaiting the release of book 4.
