Right Behind You by Diana Wilkinson

dark emotional mysterious tense medium-paced

4.0

Right Behind You by Diana Wilkinson is dark, chilling and sinister. It is not for the fainthearted as it has multiple trigger warnings of stalking, miscarriage and child abuse. Diana Wilkinson has done an excellent job of delivering a psychological thriller with effective and well-placed twists and turns. Beverly Digby's stance of taking matters into her own hands has a tragic and painful beginning. However, she doesn't understand why she needs to attend mandated therapy for one event when she happens to be in the same area as her ex-boyfriend and his girlfriend. And his girlfriend happens to lose their unborn baby. Things take on a downward spiral when Beverly is, in turn, stalked. Beverly is a queen of deception who is highly skilled at covering her tracks and stringing the right words together. There were certain sections of the book where I felt deep sorrow for her. The parallels between the past and present, Beverly's relationship with her therapist, Queenie and the supporting characters are well fleshed out. The only minor flag for me was that the last few chapters appeared slightly drawn out. Diana Wilkinson is a talented and skilful writer, and I look forward to reading more of her work.
