Shadow Falls by Wendy Dranfield

Intriguing mystery thriller

My rating: 4 out of 5

Madison is now out of prison, having done her time for a framed charge of manslaughter. Nate is a free man having had his murder charge overturned. They team up as Private Investigators, and look into the case of a girl gone missing from a summer camp.

Lots of twists and turns in this mystery thriller. Nate and Madison have their own secrets from each other, and the family with the missing child appear to have a lot to hide. Can Nate and Madison find out what happened to the girl, or will the police solve it?

This is a great thriller with the emphasis (to my mind) more on the characters than the missing child. Within the first few chapters I was totally involved with Nate and Madison, and even more so as their histories, and needs to right wrongs done to them, became clear. At the same time the mystery of the missing girl adds plenty of suspense, making this an intriguing and involving story with plenty of twists and turns.

4*s from me as I enjoyed the characters, and found this a great read. With an easy to follow plot this thriller was involving and entertaining. I absolutely raced through the final third to find out what happened to the missing girl. This is the first book in a series – which is just as well as I’m really keen to know more about Nate and Madison!
