LoveReading Says

An absorbing, tension-filled, and quietly chilling read. Journalist Rebecca Connolly can’t resist the call of a story about a missing person while on holiday. While this is the fifth Rebecca Connolly Thriller and I would recommend starting with Thunder Bay, you could actually read this as a standalone. Thoroughly intriguing and captivating, this series also feels as though it could be real. I love Rebecca’s determination to follow a story through to the end, her tenacity stands her in good stead, but also places her in danger. What I particularly love about this series is how the settings join the lead characters in the spotlight. Here the Caledonian Forest stood vividly in my mind, and I felt the years of history it would have witnessed. Author Douglas Skelton writes with sensitivity as echoes of eerie sadness spread through the Black Wood and onto the page. I couldn’t help but compare the relationship between Rebecca and Stephen with the story she is investigating. Jolts of action, and increasing suspense ensure Children of the Mist is a compelling read.
