This book definitely has a similar plot to a very popular book, but won‘t say to avoid spoilers. Although aspects of it were different. It was fast-paced & intense. A couple of things I felt were convenient at the end, but otherwise a very good read! I‘m eager to read the next book in this series!

Mary Stewart is a go-to when I need a comfort read, and this did not disappoint.

Not a Hitchcock you'd think of right away, but grippingly good.

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Perfect 👍🏻 2d
Eggs Agree-it‘s a compelling one. After I watched the Cary Grant series I decided to rewatch some of hitchcock‘s movies. N x NW, Charade, To Catch a Thief, man who knew too much, Rope 2d

Book 2 of the Rockton/Casey Duncan series.
The story continues in Rockton, a town hidden in the Yukon that is invisible to the outside world. Casey and Duncan are exploring a cave and find the girl they thought had died in the wilderness. But no, she's been held captive in pit in the cave for 16 months. So did the 2 other women who they presumed were lost actually captured by some maniac and kept in a cave? The setting of this book is truly⬇️

Crazeedi A wilderness, with people living as settlers outside the settlement. Some willingly left the town, some have been there for generations. Looking forward to book 3! 2d

This thriller adds a paranormal element to the mix (as Roberts often does). Twelve-year-old Thea and her younger brother Rem always look forward to their summer two-week stay with their Grammie in the Appalachians of Kentucky while their parents take a couple vacation. However, a horrific event sees them permanently uprooted to live with Grammie. Thea, who has a “gift” that is not spoke of, discovers that this ability runs through her mother‘s ⬇️

robinb female line including her beloved Grammie. With this gift, Thea is able to identify a villain that she later discovers possesses the same skill. As he maneuvers to be released from prison, will Thea be able to thwart him and release herself from his mind games once and for all? I did enjoy this, especially the family aspect of Grammie, Thea and Rem and the love interest‘s (Ty) and his young son. However, the paranormal aspect got a bit confusing⬇️ (edited) 3d
robinb for me sometimes. Not to give anything away, but I found it complicating to figure out what could or could not be done with that skill. The storyline also did drag in certain spots.
Roberts is a master with suspense as well as drawing definitive characters, so in that sense, this one was a success. 4/5⭐️
