- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is the third novel written by Jaye Ford that I've read and I have enjoyed them all. Each has taken a realistic scenario, if a little embroidered to hype up the tension, and put them in an Australian setting that I can relate to.The structure remains interesting as Rennie puts together the circumstances of Max's disappearance and then fits them into various scenarios, discarding them one by one. The ultimate solution is the one she really doesn't want to believe. The story is layered. The further we read the more layers are peeled back and we learn of both Rennie's and Max's back stories.Throw in too Max's fourteen year old son who has run away from his mother who has gone for a holiday to Cairns. Hayden decides not to go with her and turns up just after his father has disappeared. He and Rennie have to work hard to get on.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Jaye Ford follows the success of Beyond Fear and Scared Yet? with her third exciting psychological thriller, Blood Secret.Rennie Carter never expected to stay long in the sleepy Australian coastal community of Haven Bay, but then she met Max Tully, and after a lifetime of running she dared to hope she finally found somewhere she could stay, somewhere she could be safe.And then one night Max disappears without a trace and Rennie is terrified her past has finally caught up with her - but Rennie is not the only one with secrets.Tension is introduced in the first pages of this novel and Ford continues to build the suspense until the books final frenzied moments. I was never completely sure who to hold responsible for Max's disappearance, which is testament to Ford's skillful and subtle plotting. The road rager, the father, the brother-in-law, the cafe owner, and even Max himself, are all credible suspects in his disappearance, though ultimately my first instinct proved correct.One of the things I particularly admire about Ford's characters is the way they make reasonable decisions based on the information and skills they have, instead of throwing themselves into the path of danger by making inane choices. Rennie, for example, reports Max's disappearance to the police, and when she suspects her father's involvement she reaches out to confirm or discredit her theory. Trust is not easy for Rennie, whose past is littered with tragedy, but Rennie doesn't dismiss her instincts about situations and people and it is that which ultimately saves her...and Max.Fast paced and thrilling, Blood Secret is a story of lies and betrayal, trust and love. Once you pick it up you won't be able to put it down.
