Taylor Jackson
review 1: "The headshot didn't kill Taylor Jackson. But it will haunt. In her showdown with the murderous Pretender, a bullet taken at close range severed the connection between Taylor's thoughts and speech. Effectively mute, there's no telling if her voice will ever come back. Trapped in silence, she is surrounded by ghosts-- of the past, of friendships and trusts lost--of the specter of a lost faith in herself and her motives that night. When Memphis Highsmythe offers Taylor his home in the Scottish highlands to recuperate, her fiancé John Baldwin can't refuse her excitement, no matter his distrust of the man. At first, Memphis's drafty and singularly romantic castle seems the perfect place for healing. But shortly the house itself surrounds her like a menacing presence. As Taylo... morer's sense of isolation and vulnerability grows, so, too, does her grip on reality.PTSD. Pills. Ghosts. Grudges. Someone or something is coming after Taylor. But is she being haunted by the dead...or hunted by the living?"This book comes after "So Close the Hand of Death" and I mention this because these books definetly need to be read in order. There was quite a bit of backstory in Where All the Dead lie that alludes back to events that happened in the prior novel (that I unfortunately did not read first).I got lost several times in this book because I had not read the first one but other than that I thought the writing style was good,the storyline interesting and that the death scenes were not quite so gruesome as others I have read.Definetly worth reading, just make sure you read So Close the Hand of Death first :0)
review 2: This book is a bit of a curveball, as far as the rest of the series is concerned (but in a good way). It takes place far away from Taylor's home, without her Baldwin (who I have to say I was most worried about) or her loyal friends to back her up. The danger she is in is not obvious at first. I was held captive with Taylor in the castle too, desperate to find out what was going on and if she would make it through. It was an exciting journey. But I feel the ending was a little unsatisfying. It was confusing, because things that take a long time to get organised and sorted out, all seamed to happen immediately. I just felt like the author was letting go of the Taylor and not really sure how to. Could it be that this is the last book we will get about Taylor? I hope not! Because I feel a bit cheated that we might not find out if Taylor and Baldwin ever do get married. Will they find his son? And what then? AND (the biggest and) what about the series killer who got away? Who you may ask? One of the Pretender's Apprentice! I thought he was allowed to escape, so we get the pleasure of homie being hunted down in another book! We can't have serial killers getting away with it! less
