8.4.2023 - Dark Corners

Dark Corners by Megan Goldin 

Many thanks to NetGalley, St Martin's Press and Macmillan Audio for gifting me both a digital and audio ARC of the new book by Megan Goldin, wonderfully narrated by André Santana, January LaVoy, and Samantha Desz - 4.5 stars rounded up!

Rachel Krall, who has a podcast called Guilty or Not Guilty, and has been called upon by the FBI to go to Florida to assist on a case.  The search is on for a missing social media influencer, Maddison, who disappeared hours after visiting Terence Bailey, convicted for breaking and entering, but suspected of murdering multiple women.  When Maddison goes missing, authorities wonder if he is working with someone on the outside and why Maddison even went to visit him.  Rachel goes undercover at BuzzCon, a convention for social media influencers, to try and find out more about Maddison.  But suddenly Rachel may be in serious trouble.

This is the second in the Rachel Krall series and while it can definitely be read as a stand alone, it's a great series to start from the beginning!  This was an interesting look into the dark side of social media influencers and a peek into that surreal world.  Rachel is a great character and this is at its heart a good police procedural, with lots of tension and twists.  A must read series and I can't wait for more to come!
