Follow Me

By: Angela Clarke

Narrated by: Imogen Wilde

Like. Share. Follow.... Die.

The 'Hashtag Murderer' posts chilling, cryptic clues online, pointing to their next target. Taunting the police. Enthralling the press. Capturing the public's imagination. But this is no virtual threat. As the number of his followers rises, so does the body count.

Eight years ago two young girls did something unforgivable. Now, ambitious police officer Nasreen and investigative journalist Freddie are thrown together again in a desperate struggle to catch this cunning, fame-crazed killer. But can they stay one step ahead of him? And can they escape their own past?

Time's running out. Everyone is following the #Murderer. But what if he is following you? Online, no one can hear you scream....

Not my cup of tea

What did you like best about Follow Me? What did you like least?

I found myself becoming annoyed at the way the policemen were portrayed as bungling buffoons and a twenty-three year so on top of life. I also found some of the social media points incorrect. Saying this, i do believe that a more younger reader would find teh book enjoyable.

Any additional comments?

My suggestion is people over the age of 25 or in the Social Media profession give the book a miss.
