Review of Darkness Follows by Emerald O'Brien

What if the hiding spot you escape to becomes more dangerous than the place you ran from?

Aurina Patrick is an ambitious young woman, whose only mistake was letting someone get too close. The day she is brought into the police department for questioning, her life changes forever. When Aurina discovers that someone she trusts has involved her in a series of murder investigations, her sister Ryanne joins her in a search for the truth. As the situation unravels, the Patrick sisters realize their lives could be in jeopardy.

When the sisters are taken to a remote location, the struggle for safety truly begins.

MY REVIEW:

DARKNESS FOLLOWS IS ANOTHER GREAT MURDER MYSTERY BY THE AMAZING EMERALD O'BRIEN.  THIS IS THE FIRST BOOK SHE HAS WRITTEN AND IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT ME ONE BIT.  I WAS DRAWN INTO THE STORY FROM THE VERY FIRST PAGE UNTIL THE VERY END.  WE MEET 2 SISTERS, AURINA AND RYANNE WHO ARE PUT IN WITNESS PROTECTION.  AURINA GOT INVOLVED WITH THE WRONG MAN WHO TURNED OUT TO BE A MURDER.  THE SISTERS ARE NOW IN DANGER AND ARE TAKEN TO A REMOTE LOCATION.  AS THE CASE UNRAVELS, THE SISTERS REALIZE THEY ARE NO LONGER SAFE.  WILL THE MURDERER BE CAUGHT IN TIME?

DARKNESS FOLLOWS WAS FAST READ FOR ME FILLED WITH SUSPENSE, ACTION, INTRIGUE, MURDER AND EVEN SOME ROMANCE.  I LOVE ALL THESE GENRES IN ONE STORY. EMERALD'S BOOKS ALWAYS KEEP YOU ON THE EDGE OF YOUR SEAT AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT.  HER CHARACTERS ARE VERY COMPLEX AND SO INTERESTING AS THE SISTERS WERE IN THIS BOOK.  I HAVE TO SAY, AURINA IS MY FAVORITE SISTER OUT OF THE TWO.  I THOUGHT RYANNE WAS RECKLESS.  I LOVED THAT THERE WAS A CHANCE OF ROMANCE FOR BOTH SISTERS.  DARKNESS FOLLOWS LEAVES YOU WANTING MORE AT THE END.  

IF YOU HAVE NOT READ ONE OF EMERALD'S BOOK, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU READ ONE.  YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE MISSING.  I LOVE HOW SHE COMBINES SEVERAL GENRES IN ONE STORY AND REALLY ENJOY HER CHARACTERS.  HER BOOKS ARE FILLED WITH SO MANY SURPRISES AND TWISTS. I RECOMMEND YOU READ DARKNESS FOLLOWS.  I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT BOOK IN THIS SERIES.  5 STARS
