Five by Jane Blythe

5.0

Five by Jane Blythe is the fifth book in the Count to Ten series. Jane is one of my favourite authors and this is definitely one of my favourite series. You could read as a standalone but I suggest reading these books in order as you learn so much about the inter connecting characters. Jane is talented for showing us what it could look like inside of a mind of someone so depraved and sick that you just can’t stop reading because you want to know what is going to happen next.

Laura is finally trying to live but still has a long way to go. When she comes face to face with someone who has the same look she has seen in herself for far too long, she knows she has to help, but is she strong enough? Can they trust in the unbelievable story they have been told? Who should they believe? Who can they believe? With time running out will they be able to find what they need to put all the pieces together?

To make matters worse it seems the stalker has returned and is intent on causing more pain. Is intent on killing the one person they see as a threat to happiness. Will the Detectives be able to keep all those they love safe from the evil that threatens? Will they finally be able to learn the identity of the stalker before it’s too late?

The underlying story that is carried over from previous books, is an additional bonus that adds to the thrill of the story. Once again, I love a story that keeps me guessing right until the very end and Jane never disappoints.
