An influencer’s family is murdered and secrets dark secrets are exposed in Where They Lie, the first book in the Nora McTavish series by Joe Hart.
Kaylee Volk liked to vlog about her happy family with her loving husband and three foster children. She painted a pretty picture of their perfect life. Then their private plane crashed, and Kaylee was the only survivor and said that one of her foster children, Andrea, caused the crash.
Nora McTavish, child protective services agent, is familiar with the family and Andrea’s troubled past. She can’t help but wonder, did she miss something?
The beginning of this book instantly grabbed my attention. That is how you start a book! I couldn’t help but be drawn in and wanted to see where the book was heading. As I was introduced to Nora, I felt for her as she has a very tough job, and she was looking inward to see what she missed.
This book went from gripping to good. Although this book was good, it failed to wow me. The middle slowed down greatly, but things did pick up and the ending was very good.
This was a solid 3 stars for me. Enjoyable but will I remember it in months to come? Probably not.
Thank you to Thomas & Mercer and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own.
