Publication Date: February 2013
Publisher: Literary Press
Kara Knight can't wait to leave her hometown for the promise of nursing school and a fresh start on her future -- leaving behind an overprotective mother, a broken heart and painful memories. However, twenty-five miles away, the brother she doesn't know is determined to be reunited with the sister he cannot forget.
Kara is abducted and thrown into her obsessive captor's delusional world. As the past she thought she knew unravels around her, Kara struggles to make sense of the memories that come creeping back, threatening her sanity and her safety. Meanwhile, Kara's mother races against time to save the daughter she fears she will lose when a long-held secret is revealed. The hours tick away as Roland plays out his plan--to take Kara with him into death at the exact moment of their birth, never to be separated again.
I want to say many thanks to Sharon Goodwin and Melissa Foster for letting me part of this book tour, I'll be honest I have never heard of Melissa Foster or even read of her books so this was a first book by a new author to me, I was a bit worried incase I didn't like but however I was completely wrong, It was amazing, had my pulse racing and always checking my back while reading.
In this book we meet Kara Knight who has recently just divorced with her husband Daryl as he cheated on her with a girl called Kelly, Kara is mending her broken heart and is hoping to start a fresh start on her future when her job at the plant soon comes to a scary abduction by a brother she cannot remember, Roland acting all psycho keeps repeating to himself "Born together Die Together" having planned out for months and been watching Kara, he knows exactly how they are both going to die and also at what time...Can Kara's Mum Mimi help find Kara and stop this nightmare from upsetting Kara and bringing so many things from the past to light...
Melissa Foster is a cracking writer who can certainly write great thriller/suspense books which leave you feeling gripped and wanting to finish the book always trying to predict what the ending will be. I was certainly hooked from the first chapter and the chapters never slowed down, so much action happening and very pulse pounding for sure.
Roland Greer certainly gave me the creeps while I was reading this book, nothing fearing him from killing so many people in his path to get to his long lost sister Kara or Marissa to him as he calls her. He was a great baddy though and I could never see the ending happening with him, the bit at the end of the book..did make me wonder, is there going to be another book with Roland in?
If you a huge fan of Thriller/Suspense books with plenty of action package, Pulse pounding and very gripping then you are going to love Traces Of Kara. A must read I say.
