Her Last Tear beings with a bang! Fireworks are beautiful and their display illuminates the sky with sound and wonder! It’s a time for fun and celebration but soon turns into a nightmare for one mother. The tension mounts, dread, unease, and fear sink in as the desperate search for the girls becomes a top priority. This riveting and shocking book kept me fully invested, turning the pages, and hoping for a fast resolution. This was a gripping page turner!
As fireworks are going off overhead, a mother’s worse fear occurs, her two young daughters are missing. She frantically searches for them, but no one saw them leave. Nikki Hunt was at the firework display with her daughter, Rory, and his family. When she receives the Amber alert she springs into action! It appears the girls have vanished without a trace. Later a witness came forward and reported seeing the girls being led down the docks by someone they appear to know.
As Nikki and her team begin their investigation, it becomes clear that several characters in this book have secrets. Will the secrets hurt the investigation? Do they matter?
This book has many layers and at its core is the mystery of who took the girls and why. There is a sense of urgency flowing throughout the book as Nikki does everything possible to hunt down the kidnapper.
Stacy Green has created an amazing character in Nikki. I admire how she is both tough, sympathetic, and vulnerable at times. She does her best to balance her work and personal life. She is a hard-working FBI agent who doesn’t let anything get in her way. In this book she is against the clock trying to solve this case.
Missing children really pulls at the heartstrings of most readers, me included. I can’t even imagine how devastating losing a child must be. The not knowing, the fear, and blame. Green did a great job showing how Brittany blamed herself for her children going missing.
With the other books in this series, I found this to be a gripping, page turner that had me feeling all kinds of emotions. I was glad to see Rory and Lacey in this book and hope to see more of them in future books.
Gripping, shocking, well written, and hard to put down!
