Chris Carter: The Caller

Today I’m back on the Chris Carter blogathon with my review of The Caller. It’s written with thanks to Tracy Fenton for inviting me on the blogathon.

Blurb;

Be careful before answering your next call. It could be the beginning of your worst nightmare.

After a tough week, Tanya Kaitlin is looking forward to a relaxing night in, but as she steps out of her shower, she hears her phone ring.  The video call request comes from her best friend, Karen Ward.  Tanya takes the call and the nightmare begins.
   
Detectives Robert Hunter and Carlos Garcia are thrown into a rollercoaster of evil, chasing a predator who scouts the streets and social media networks for victims, taunting them with secret messages and feeding on their fear. 

Review:

I love this series and I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to get into it. The Caller is no different. The writing is slick and the story is very cleverly put together with a fast pace that makes it incredibly easy to fall into that “one more chapter” trap!

The premise of The Caller is really inventive and from the outset I wanted to know who the perpetrator was and the reasoning behind their crimes because their methods seemed so unusual. As always, it’s not for the faint hearted but the murder scenes are very visceral and took me right to the heart of the investigation.

As the novel reaches its conclusion, the tension continues to rise and there were some heart stopping moments and some interesting twists. There are a few different strands to the story and this makes it difficult to guess what the ending will be, but I loved being kept on the edge of my seat!

I can’t wait to continue reading this series!

The Caller is available from Amazon.
