Parents Weekend by Alex Finlay
5.0
dark tense fast-paced

This book has a great hook with the beginning with The Five and their realization that they have done something terrible but not knowing what and it drew me right in! I love the way this author writes his thrillers, nicely twisty with rotating view points with the parents (where you get to see how their actions might be the reason their kids have gone missing), to the students (ramping up the tension as you see what terrible mess they are in) and of course FBI Agent Keller whom I absolutely love and am glad she has made a reappearance in solving this current case. She is smart and knows how to use all the resources (including taking along local agents and one eager intern as they know the area and people) to solve the case. She really does shine and I hope we get to see her and her family in more of these thrilling books.

This was a fast and thrilling read and kept me on the edge of my seat as I urged Agent Keller and the other officers to find out the truth and where they missing students have gone, hopefully before they end up dead! Yes, there is sadness in this book, but I really enjoyed it and the ending was good.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the chance to read this awesome book. I love this author and look forward to reading all the novels her writes!
