I have loved every book by Michael Robotham and Lying Beside You was everything I’ve come to expect, and more. The characters are so real it’s almost personal seeing their relationships develop. The “edge of your seat” plot that makes his books un-put-downable, the unfolding of events and the no-nonsense writing combine to make this book thrilling. I felt sad when it was over but as they say, all good things must come to an end. Highly recommended!
Be sure to read his earlier novel which introduces the main characters in this sequel. If you enjoy mystery and crime, this author is for you.
