About this ebook

THE TRUTH HIDES IN THE DARK

Kate Marshall’s investigation into a young boy’s disappearance sends her down an unexpectedly twisted path in a riveting thriller by multi-million bestselling author, Robert Bryndza.

When Private Investigator Kate Marshall is rushed to hospital after being pulled into a riptide current in the sea, the near-death experience leaves her shaken. During her recovery, she befriends Jean, an elderly lady on the same ward. Jean tells the harrowing story of how her three-year-old grandson, Charlie, went missing eleven years ago during a camping trip on Dartmoor.

By the time Kate is well enough to go home, she's agreed to take on the case, but when Kate and her trusty sidekick Tristan start to look at the events of that fateful night, they discover that Jean has a dark past that could have put Charlie in jeopardy.

Was Charlie abducted? Or did he fall into Devil's Way? A rushing river that vanishes into a gorge close to where they were camping.

When Kate and Tristan discover that a social worker who flagged concerns about Jean and her daughter was found brutally murdered shortly after Charlie vanished, it makes them question everything they thought they knew about the family...

Filled with twists and turns, Devil's Way is the fourth Kate Marshall novel and the most gripping and satisfying yet!

I really enjoyed this mystery and thought it just got better and better. It had a satisfying and realistic ending and I highly recommend. I guess what I loved the most about this was how invested I became with everyone. The book was skillfully written with surprises at every turn. This was my second novel by this author and I’m hooked. I read some of this but mostly chose to listen to the audiobook. Narrated by Jan Cramer and a little over 9 hours I didn’t want it to end.

I have read all of Robert Bryndza's books, so I figured I would love Devil's Way. This book seemed to be a bit of a slower burn than his usual books, but the last half really picked up and kept me glued to my phone. I finished it at 2 a.m. instead of sleeping! I feel a bit stupid because I didn't catch on to the twist until about 30 seconds before the characters did! Overall, it was an excellent book. It was a little lighter on character development than Bryndza's other books, but the plot was solid and the subplots tied together realistically. Devil's Way is definitely a five star read.

An engaging mystery! I've not read any other books in this series & wasn't sure what to expect. I was happily surprised and am definitely going to go back and read the other books in this series. I liked Kate a lot. She's an interesting character. I liked Tristan a lot too! The mystery of the missing boy was intriguing, and I enjoyed putting all the pieces together as they uncovered them. I completely recommend this book and look forward to more in the series.

Robert was born in Lowestoft, on the east coast of England. He studied at Aberystwyth University, and the Guildford School of Acting, and was an actor for several years, but didn’t find success until he took a play he’d written to the Edinburgh Festival. This led to the decision to change career and start writing. He self-published a bestselling series of romantic comedy novels, before switching to writing crime. Robert lives with his husband in Slovakia, and is lucky enough to write full-time.
