4.0 out of 5 starsBe ready to be scared
Reviewed in Australia on 10 July 2020
A really good read. Not a long book, so would be good for reading in bed too. I really enjoyed the outcome. I confess to almost having the outcome figured out but got the wrong person.

3.0 out of 5 starsA reasonable read.
Reviewed in Australia on 30 May 2020
This book I found to be a reasonable read but it did not grab my attention and refuse to let go. The plot line of young hopefuls disappearing from a dance academy, to be lured to the bright lights, provided a quite solid foundation. What was disappointing was the characterization that was rather undeveloped. An exploration of motive would have been helpful. I hope the others I'd previously purchased (on the basis of my reading of "Bring Them Home", and they were inexpensive at the time) improve in the above mentioned departments.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed with Books 1 & 2
Reviewed in Australia on 20 June 2019

Have read D S Butlers books and really enjoyed them however the Jack Mackinnon books 1 & 2 were a disappointment.Main character not “strong” enough to warrant name in title .
Too many minor characters easy to get lost in the story line .

3.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable
Reviewed in Australia on 7 July 2020

I enjoyed this book. It was easy to read, believable plot and not too many characters. Some authors put in too many characters that you just can’t follow everything. However this was an easy read and I’ll certainly buy the next book in the series.

It’s a very nice change these days to find a new author who can build suspense without adding unnecessarily gross details. Looking forward to seeing how the characters develop in the next books.

Not bad but rather dreary and not very exciting. I will try the next one in the series.
