Description: On a rainy night, a man gives a teenage girl a lift home, but the girl he picks up isn't the same one he drops off. Bestseller Linwood Barclay hooks the reader from page one with this suspense masterpiece From the author of FIND YOU FIRST When Cal Weaver stops at a red light on a rainy night while driving home, he ignores the bedraggled-looking teenage girl trying to hitch a ride - even when she starts tapping on his window. But when he realises she's one of his son's classmates, he knows he can't really leave her, alone, on the street. But nothing prepares him for the consequences of trying to help her out. The next morning he's gone from Good Samaritan to Murder Suspect, and with one girl dead and another missing, he's suddenly at the centre of a deadly puzzle that reaches right to the heart of the town - from its bullying police force to its strangely furtive mayor - and finally to one family's shocking secret.

Review: This is the second time I have read this book but thankfully my memory is very poor, so I get two times the pleasure for one price.

Review: I love Linwood Barclay, he drops you right into the action, no faffing about and poses lots of mystery along the way. This was not my favorite of his but it certainly wasn't boring to read. Driving home the drivers window is tapped on by a young teenage girl who says she remembers his deceased son and so the journey begins. I found it difficult to connect with any of the characters to be honest but did like the way it was handled about the main character and his wife struggling to deal with grief and the unanswered questions of was it their fault, his, or someone else? Its just one basic question, should he have driven on or was he right to give her a lift home? Such a simple thing to ask, with so many complications involved. The big build up is to the mystery of who is causing trouble in the town and why and to be honest when you find out its a little bit of a let down. It also seems confusing with the teenagers story, the mystery of the trouble in the town, drug dealers, and dodgy police all mixed up somehow together and to not care about the characters makes it difficult to finish.
