“Catch the Girl” as the same heart-pounding suspense as its predecessors and by far does not disappoint. It continues the exciting story of Willow Bay and of the wonderful players that make this series an exciting read. It can easily be read on its own, the author provides enough explanations of past events that if you pick up at this point you will not have problems but I must say it is a plus to have read “The River Girls” and “Girl Eight” first since much of the characters have evolved with time.
In “Catch the Girl” we have a young woman seeking refuge in a Florida commune but when two of her friends go missing she suspects the community is not what she thought it was and discovers that she may be the next target of a ruthless killer. As the story unfolds, the dedicated teams of WBPD Nessa, Janhowski and Baker and the long-time heroes Eden, Reggie, Leo, Frankie and Duke which have never in the past hesitated when a woman`s life was at stake to risk all, even their own safety, they are not about to start now…. So they spring into action and following their every moves I couldn`t help flipping pages and be very captivated by what was going on.
This story is a mystery but this time the plot contains more about the character’s personal relationships that in the previous installments. Knowing a little more about them simply helps us to love them more. Baker is looking for his run-away daughter, turns to Nessa and Eden for help and with the WBPD they are looking into a secretive commune……and possibly the source of multiple murders….Of course we have Eden and Leo friendships gaining strength. Awe romance is in the air…
The plotline is filled with mystery and is very suspenseful, quite a page-turner. We have Ruth who needed help and ends up at Mercy Harbor traumatized. She soon disappears and is found dead hanging under a bridge, on her forehead is a carving similar to an earlier discovery of a lifeless woman at a gas station. It doesn’t stop there we have various threads of intrigue woven throughout and many twists to surprise us…Eventually the strands come together to a satisfying climax….. This is a nicely penned storyline with warm characters to play out the scenes.
