Summary

Their parents thought they were hiding....

One beautiful summer’s evening, thirteen-year-old twins Ivy and Erin Westmore snuggle down in a tent in their back garden, giggling and sharing secrets.

When their mother goes to wake the girls the next morning, their tent is empty.

The alarm is raised, and Detective Natalie Ward is put onto the case. When the twins’ bodies are discovered on nearby marshland, covered with deep pink petals, an icy shiver travels down Natalie’s spine. Everything about the girls’ deaths reminds her of a horrifying case she worked on earlier in her career, which saw a killer of the worst kind placed behind bars.

The next day, that feeling is heightened when she receives a chilling note saying "I’m back". Is this killer a copycat, or did Natalie put the wrong person in prison all those years ago? In a small town, where no stranger goes unnoticed, what is Natalie missing?

Consumed by the case, determined to prevent more deaths, Natalie misses the fact that it is her attention the killer wants. And to get it, he has his sights set firmly on her precious daughter Leigh....

Gripping, fast-paced, and nail-bitingly tense. Perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Rachel Abbott, and Karin Slaughter.

Gripping and believable

excellent thriller and good narrator. Wanted to try other books by the same author but reviews of other narrators arennot good.

I think I need a hug...

This time, DI Natalie Ward is on the trail of a serial killer who preys on twin teenage girls. The killer is extra devious and covers their tracks well, though I was a bit smug that I had correct suspicions about whodunnit about halfway through.

While working on this case, she is also trying to manage her disastrous personal life which is taking it toll on her. Things come to a head when the killer’s identity is uncovered and it becomes clear that he has his sights set on Ward’s daughter.

As with all other books in this series, this title is exceptionally well written and full of detailed and well researched police procedure which I feel would keep even the pickiest pedant happy. There’s no jumping to conclusions and DI Ward’s team follow everything by the book to make sure they do the job right.

All of the audiobooks of this series are narrated by the amazingly talented Diana Croft, I have awarded all of them 5 stars for both story and narration but now I wish there was a bonus star because this book blew the rest of the series out of the water for both story and heart. I didn't think it was possible for me to be any more impressed with this narrator's work but I stand corrected, my jaw was hitting the ground by the end of this book.

You should definitely read the other books in this series first to get the full impact of the story, though it would still work as a standalone as some of the backstory is helpfully reiterated throughout so you’re not lost if this is your first read.

Another superb book

This series by Carol Wyer is so good. I've read all the books and upon discovering they are narrated by Diana Croft, I listened to all the audio books. Hitting a reading/listening slump recently, what could be better to lift me up then revisiting this stellar series. I've under-starred this book as all the others are 5 star listens and this should really be a 6 star. Carol Wyer never takes the easy route with her heroes or story and this twist is one you definitely won't see coming. Even though I know the story my heart was once again in my mouth. Taut and nerve-jangling, The Blossom Twins will stay with you for a long time.

The story just gets better

Yet another smasher of a story from Carol Wyer. It’s twisty, it’s punchy and it’s gripping.
