When it came to the epilogue – which with Cara’s books you just MUST READ – I was kind of expecting something similar to be revealed but I didn’t think it would have been quite so clean cut.The Man in the High Castle is an American dystopian alternate history television series created for streaming service Amazon Prime Video, depicting a parallel universe where the Axis powers of Nazi Germany and the Empire of Japan rule the world after their victory in World War II. There were so many little revelations in this that I was definitely kept on my toes, it was so much more than a simple who dunnit! I really didn’t see the ending coming at all, especially not the way it all unfolded and I’m sure I gasped out loud a few times. I was so torn by Dr Harper and spent the whole time debating if he had or hadn’t committed the crime, I really couldn’t quote piece it all together! Let alone when they started reopening old cases as well – I was not expecting that turn!! On a personal note, I really liked the fact that we got to see more of Adam’s personal life in this and that Alex was more involved – I had a lot of questions after book 1!Īnyway, I digress, the investigation is told in such a realistic way that you really feel that you’re trying to solve the case with the team. I don’t think anyone expected the cops to find a young girl and a baby there, and I have to say, I don’t think I really expected them to be alive! But they do, and they are.ĭI Adam Fawley is called onto the case alongside his team and you know that things are in good hands. It starts off with some builders accidentally knocking a hole in a cellar wall and finding a face staring back at them. Although, I struggled to put this down but purely because I was so hooked! There are little breaks and bits of extra content (interview transcripts, texts and emails) that help to create pauses and breaks if you do want to put the book down for a bit so don’t worry about that. When you start reading this you do notice that there are a distinct lack of chapters but, if anything, this helps with the pace of the book.

In the end I found this one and the third book, No Way Out, at my local library so I’ve finally managed to get reading again. I read Close to Home (book 1 in this series) a while ago now and absolutely loved it and couldn’t wait to read the others but did have a bit of a struggle trying to get my hands on them.
