rubenstein 's review for:

Right Behind You by Lisa Gardner

4.0

---

Right Behind You is a lightning-fast read that kept me turning the pages until the very end. I love playing detective, trying to figure out what's really going on, and this book gave me a run for my money! It's a book that doesn't give its secrets up easily, it makes you work for them, and I loved that. Although this is the seventh book in the series (and my first) it reads nicely as a standalone and I had no trouble following along - if anything it made me more curious about how these characters got to this point and now I'm dying to start the series from the beginning! My absolute favorite thing about Lisa Gardner novels is that, if you donate money to charities she supports (or win contest on her site) she'll turn you into a character! Your namesake might die a gruesome death within minutes of their introduction, but how awesome is that? So, so cool. One of my favorites in Right Behind You is Molly, a rescue Pit who plays a pretty hefty role in the book.
