Every Waking Hour
Every Waking Hour: A Mystery | Joanna Schaffhausen
5 posts | 5 read
The fourth book in Joanna Schaffhausen's heartpounding Ellery Hathaway mystery series, Every Waking Hour.... After surviving a serial killer’s abduction as a young teenager, Ellery Hathaway is finally attempting a normal life. She has a new job as a rookie Boston detective and a fledgling relationship with Reed Markham, the FBI agent who rescued her years ago. But when a twelve-year-old girl disappears on Ellery’s watch, the troubling case opens deep wounds that never fully healed. Chloe Lockhart walked away from a busy street fair and vanished into the crowd. Maybe she was fleeing the suffocating surveillance her parents put on her from the time she was born, or maybe the evil from her parents’ past finally caught up to her. For Chloe, as Ellery learns, is not the first child Teresa Lockhart has lost. Ellery knows what it’s like to have the past stalk you, to hold your breath around every corner. Sending one kidnapped girl to find another could be Chloe’s only hope or an unmitigated disaster that dooms them both. Ellery must untangle the labyrinth of secrets inside the Lockhart household—secrets that have already murdered one child. Each second that ticks by reminds her of her own lost hours, how close she came to death, and how near it still remains.

This was a good entry in the Ellery Hathaway series! Schaffhausen knows how to bring on the twists & turns in the plot while evolving Ellery and Reed Markham‘s characters! A girl goes missing & Detective Hathaway is on the case & Reed joins the case too. Did she runaway or was she taken? Looking at the girl‘s mother‘s past it‘s revealed she‘s lost a child before. Unexpected twists along the way & more personal developments make this excellent!

I really enjoyed this fourth book and want more (even if it kind of ignored where book 3 ending in regards to Reed's mom). The author is starting a new series, which I'm also looking forward to, so I don't think book 5 will be here soon. Sigh.
Book 30 0f 2021 (I am way behind on my Litsy reviews!)

EVERY WAKING HOUR by Joanna Schaffhausen
This was the fourth in a series and I did not read the first three. I did throughly enjoy this one though. I don't believe it took away from the story in any way me not reading the first books.
4/5 stars
