Yup, I’m there for it, and, no, I don’t want to explore what that says about me. In the Darkness is the second Zoe Bentley novel. The main plot is unique to this book, but there’s also a carryover storyline from A Killer’s Mind, the first book, so I think it’s best to read them in order. Pacing is steady, moving us through a complex case as Zoe and Tatum race against the clock to find the killer. The content is dark, violent, and vivid. During the main investigation, we also have the reappearance of Zoe’s nemesis from the first book, which can make the story feel overly complicated at times. I’m hoping for resolution on this storyline soon. Some things happen that are a bit of a stretch, but not so much that I couldn’t see it all playing out. Overall, there’s a realistic feel that makes this book all the more uncomfortable to read. “Who would have guessed that what a serial killer would need these days was a good marketing department?” The ‘unsub’ in this book likes to bury women alive and then live stream their struggles, and deaths, on the internet. Zoe and her partner must work to stop him, and to stop an old serial killer from messing with Zoe's sister. Throw in a grumpy old grandpa, and you've got a story! One that I did not have a clue who the killer was! A pretty good sequel, good enough for me to want to read number 3! Just one request - drop that newspaper reporter please! He really doesn't add much at all. I love this author! I love this series! I can’t wait for the 3rd book to come out in June! The writing is gripping and it pulls you in, and keeps you reading. He’s great at making the outcome not predictable and isn’t afraid to make the books creepy, which I love. The characters are also awesome, one of my favorites is Marvin, he throws a little bit of comedy into the book. SO GOOD!! If you like suspense and mystery, READ THIS SERIES! keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Gehört zur ReiheZoe Bentley (2) Prestigeträchtige Auswahlen
"An online video of a girl clawing at the ceiling of her own grave could be the worst thing FBI forensic psychologist Zoe Bentley has ever seen. Perhaps even more disturbing is the implication of the video's title: "Experiment Number One. Zoe and her partner, Special Agent Tatum Gray, work as fast as they can to find the monster behind the shocking video, but soon another one shows up online, and another girl turns up dead. Meanwhile, a different murderer is on Zoe's mind. Rod Glover has been tormenting her since childhood, and his latest attack is a threatening photo of himself with Zoe's sister. As Glover's threats creep toward action, Zoe's torn between family and duty. Zoe must think fast to prevent another murder. With her own family's safety on the line, Zoe feels she's never been in more danger. And while she's always known her job could send her to an early grave, she always assumed she'd be dead first."--Amazon. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

This is the second book in the series and although I haven’t read the first book I followed the story without any issues, obviously one of the serial killers, Rod Glover, has come from the first book there was enough back story for me to be able to follow so if like me this is your first book by Mike Omer you will still throughly enjoy it.
The characters are all well fleshed out, Zoe and her partner Special Agent Tatum Grey have a great relationship that reads well but my favourite character was Marvin, Tatum’s grumpy, skydiving, grumpy old grandfather! He made me chuckle on several occasions 😀
As Zoe and Tatum travel to Texas to follow a case of a woman who has been buried alive and broadcast across the internet Zoe’s sister comes face to face with the serial killer Rod Glover. Torn between being at home protecting her sister and staying in Texas to help the police catch the Schrodinger’s killer they battle against the clock to save another woman who has also been buried alive and being broadcast across the internet named ‘experiment two’
This is one for all those taphephobic people out there just like me. (I had to google it and it is the fear of being buried alive!)
A claustrophobic, dark tense plot that has you gasping for breath along with the victims!
In the Darkness will be published on 25 June 2019 and is available for pre order now, it will also be available to read for free via kindle unlimited.
