Families are dying. No matter how hard DCI Platt tries, he's not seeing a pattern; not even after his own wife and daughter are targeted.

Young Melanie has forgotten what life outside Larksford House was like. She's been in for so long. But when Toby joins the team, she starts to remember. She really shouldn't be there. Professor Hicks is delighted that Toby has made the breakthrough for him. It might actually allow Hicks to improve his own fortunes.

Bill Brown sells security; his business improves with every strike of the family killer. As fear in the community grows, Bill's ability to gain a stranger's trust comes to the fore. But what is he hiding?

As the clock ticks, can Platt get closer to the killer, and will Melanie remember the truth?

    2.0 out of 5 stars Cannot recommend 'as is'.
    Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2024
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    While the premise or plot may be interesting, the execution is so full of errors (grammatical, spelling, incorrect names, etc.) that it makes reading this book confusing and annoying. It took an effort to even pick it up to continue reading to the end. I kept hoping that, at least when it was finished, there would be some satisfaction to be found.

    Instead, the story continues in the NEXT book, without any type of resolution. This is a story that should have been completed in one properly proofread and edited book.

    I cannot justify the time or effort to continue this story, and would strongly advise the author to find a better editor or proofreader to bring his ideas to fruition in the future.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Not a Standalone Book
    Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2023
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    To find out the killer, you have to read Book 2, but I won't be reading it.

    The writing is fairly good but needs an editor -- too many errors in grammar and repetition which distracted me. The plot seemed to jump around and was hard for me to follow. With Melanie, the same thoughts and actions happened over and over without a direction. I thought about not continuing after page 100, but stuck with it to the end only to find the story continues in Book 2.

    This is not book 1 of a two book series, this is half of a story. At the end of this book nothing is settled. I assume you must buy and read book 2 to find out what happens to the characters, not something I will be doing.

    Interesting characters / story line but continuity is confusing. Also, misspelled words, misplaced words, and punctuation are an issue. I will read the next book, looking forward to better presentation and because I am nosy.

    Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2024
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Lots of errors which is annoying to me. It’s a great whodunnit but that’s all the praise I’m willing to give. It’s more than a cliffhanger, you absolutely have to read book 2 for any answers and that’s not something I’m willing to do.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Full of errors
    Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2024
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This book needs an editor and proofreader. The author cannot decide on the age of the girl locked away and while the setting and characters are English he uses mom instead if mum amongst others.
    It was particularly annoying that he is so confused as to the age of the girl who.en she was locked up.
    I won't be reading any more books by this author.

    A Friend of the Family is so cleverly structured as to keep the tension high and the reader (me) turning those pages. Oh, but I have to read the next book to discover who done it... though I do have an idea. Very good. Recommend.

    Why did I not read all the reviews! I CANT STAND books which don't have an ending, and you have to buy the next one. This author is not for me. There were so many grammatical errors, it was annoying. I won't be buying any more from this author.

    3.0 out of 5 stars It doesn't have any ending!!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 14, 2025
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Lots and lots of spelling errors & grammatical errors - very annoying as it kept taking my focus from the story! Also the timeline was completely off - Melanie was 18 then nearly 21, she was 12 when the incident happened, then was eight, really off putting! Story was OK but style of writing quite stilted and off! Also the book does not end - it is not a standalone book - just says end of book one! That is not a novel if it leads onto another book!!! Wasn't interested enough in any of the characters to consider bothering to read the second book!
