Behind closed doors by Carol Wyer

Thank you @zoobookyours and @CarolWyer for letting me part of this tour and reviewing this book. Wow what a fantastic read. It gripped me from the start to the point i could not put it down. This is great psychological read. Two kidnappings, thirty years apart. There was some great twists i did not see coming. I liked how you found out about Stacy kidnapping that was in the past and them went to the future where Stacy exhusband daughter who kidnapped and ask her for help. really enjoyed this book will definatly read more. 5 stars Can Stacey face her own dark past in order to save her stepdaughter? When Stacey’s ex-husband turns up on her doorstep begging her to help save his kidnapped thirteen-year-old daughter, Lyra, the terror is all too familiar. Stacey’s own violent kidnapping thirty years ago was never solved, and while a severe case of amnesia spares her from recalling the specific horrors, she remembers enough… Stacey knows her father never paid the ransom—she has the missing pinkie finger to prove it. She knows she was only saved because of an anonymous tip-off to the police. And she knows her captor was never apprehended. Lyra’s kidnappers have made it clear the police must not get involved. But Stacey can’t shake the eerie similarities between the two cases, and she’ll use whatever she can, from her journalistic powers to her shady contacts, to save Lyra from the same nightmare. Desperate to find any link between Lyra’s abduction and her own, Stacey forces herself to revisit her forgotten, traumatic past for clues. But can she make sense of the terrible secrets she unearths in time to save Lyra? And if she does, is she ready to face her own tormentor? Author Bio USA Today bestselling author and winner of The People's Book Prize Award, Carol Wyer's crime novels have sold over one million copies and been translated into nine languages.

An Eye For An Eye was chosen as a Kindle First Reads and became the #1 bestselling book on Amazon UK and Amazon Australia. Carol has had articles published in national magazines 'Woman's Weekly', featured in 'Take A Break', 'Choice', 'Yours' and 'Woman's Own' magazines and the Huffington Post. She's also been interviewed on numerous radio shows discussing ''Irritable Male Syndrome' and 'Ageing Disgracefully' and on BBC Breakfast television. She currently lives on a windy hill in rural Staffordshire with her husband Mr. Grumpy... who is very, very grumpy. When she is not plotting devious murders, she can be found performing her comedy routine, Smile While You Still Have Teeth.

  2. I wanted to say a huge thank you for your amazing review and for being part of the tour. I'm delighted that you enjoyed the book, especially as it was a standalone thriller and not my usual police procedural/crime.
    If you have a moment, I'd really appreciate it if you could copy this ace review to Amazon. I would love other readers to be able to read it. (Apologies if you have already done it, - I didn't spot it this morning, but in my defence I was very bleary-eyed!) I understand if you can't too... many bloggers have been banned from Amazon! (Grr!)
    Thank you too for sharing the book love... without you and others like you... I would have no readers – you are the best!
