Charity White can't forget the horrific crime that happened ten years ago when she and her best friend, Andrea, spontaneously cut through the woods on their way home from high school. In the middle of their trek, a man abducted Andrea, who hasn't been seen since. Since that fateful day, Charity has tried to outrun the memories and guilt of that one hasty decision. What if she and her friend hadn't taken that shortcut? Why wasn't Charity taken instead of Andrea? And why weren't the police ever able to track down the bad guy? When Charity receives a mysterious letter that promises answers, she decides to face her worst nightmare. She returns home to North Carolina in search of closure and a touch of the peace that has eluded her for the past decade. With the help of her new neighbor, Police Officer Joshua Haven, Charity begins to track down mysterious clues. They soon discover that they must work together or both of them will be swallowed by the looming darkness.
Great sequel to Home Before Dark! I liked this one even better than the first! I couldn't put it down and I couldn't guess who the bad guy/gal was before it was revealed! Lots of mystery and suspense and sweet friendships. Charity comes back to her hometown where she hopes to get closure from her past. She has almost all bad memories and just wants to move on. Almost everyone she ever trusted has let her down. When she meets Joshua, he seems trustworthy, but her past makes her doubt him. He has a past too, that has scarred him. Lots of twists and turns in the mystery to keep you guessing! Is Charity really seeing her friend, Audrey, who was abducted 10 years ago? Or is someone playing a cruel joke on Charity? Great read!
