What You Left Behind
What You Left Behind: A Novel | Samantha Hayes
9 posts | 4 read | 2 to read
A mesmerizing new thriller from the author of Until Youre Mine Two years after a terrifying spate of teenage suicides, the remote village of Radcote has just begun to heal. Then a young man is killed in a freak motorcycle accident and a suicide note is found among his belongings. When a second boy is found dead shortly thereafter, the nightmare of repeat suicides once again threatens the community. Desperate for a vacation, Detective Inspector Lorraine Fisher has just come to Radcote for a stay with her sister, Jo, but the atmosphere of the country house is unusually tense. Freddie, Jo's son, seems troubled and uncommunicative, and Jo is struggling to reach out to him. Meanwhile, Lorraine becomes determined to discover the truth behind these deaths. Are they suicides, or is there something more sinister at work? Finding answers might help Freddie, but they'll also lead to a shocking truth: whatever it is--or whoever it is--that's killing these young people is far more disturbing than she ever could have imagined, and unraveling the secret is just as dangerous as the secret itself. Wicked, intense, and utterly compulsive, What You Left Behind confirms Samantha Hayes as a top thriller writer.

Started off strong, but the ending became a little contrived.

I found this very hard to read at first. It felt a bit fractured and kept mentioning things that had happened in the past which made me think I should have read a previous book first (not the case) but eventually the story found its rhythm and the pace picked up. I figured out 'who done it' about half way through but totally missed the final twist. Excellent ending.
