Down The Darkest Road (Oak Knoll Series #3) by Tami Hoag

Synopsis :

California, 1990—Four years after Lauren Lawton's sixteen-year-old daughter disappeared, the world has given up the girl for dead. Lauren's husband took his own life. Her younger daughter is looking only for what's left of her childhood. But Lauren never surrendered. She knows who took her child, and there's not a shred of evidence against him. 

Looking for a fresh start, Lauren and her younger daughter Leah move to idyllic Oak Knoll. So has Lauren's suspect. And it feels that history is about to repeat itself.

Leah is turning sixteen, and Oak Knoll has a cunning predator on the hunt. But as sheriff's detective Tony Mendez and his team sift through the circumstances of an increasingly disturbing case, a stunning question changes everything they thought they knew...


This is what I say :

Down The Darkest Road is the third and last book in the Oak Knoll Series but with totally new characters and totally new storyline.  Characters like Vince, Tony and Anne made appearance but the main focus is on Lauren.

It is also the shortest book in the series with just over 60 chapters compared to about 90 chapters in the earlier two titles.  In fact, it don't have to feature the above characters and be a totally stand alone title altogether and it would have worked equally well for the readers.

It's an enjoyable thriller but it gives a different vibes than the first title Deeper Than The Dead  and the second title Secrets to the Grave

Anyway, I am glad to have read this series but equally glad to end it too.
