“Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme that was originally created by Breaking the Spine. Unfortunately Breaking the Spine are no longer hosting so I’m now linking my posts up to Wishful Endings Can’t Wait Wednesday. Don’t forget to stop over, link up and check out what books everyone else is waiting for. If you want to take part, basically, every Wednesday, we highlight a book that we’re really looking forward to. This week my book is : The Shadow Friend by Alex North. I enjoyed The Whisper Man so look forward to seeing what this author comes up with next. And I love the description. Take a peek:
If it had happened to you, you would have run away too.
Twenty-five years ago, Paul’s friend Charlie Crabtree brutally killed their classmate – and then vanished without a trace.
Paul’s never forgiven himself for his part in what happened. He’s never gone back home.
Until his elderly mother has a fall. It’s finally time to stop running.
It’s not long before things start to go wrong. His mother claims there’s someone in the house. Paul realises someone is following him. And, in a town many miles away, a copycat killer has struck.
Which makes him wonder – what really happened to Charlie the day of the murder?
And can anyone stop it happening again?
Expected publication : July 2020
I think I just added this book to my TBR earlier this week, except in the US the book might be called something different, The Shadows. I got confused for a sec because the title and covers look completely different, but the descriptions are similar. I agree, it sounds good!
Yep, I’m excited to see what this author does next and I like the description. I think the covers were different for the last book? But the titles the same. I wonder why – it’s the same with the CJ Tudor books and in fact now I think about it Laura Purcell.

I need to try this author! Ugh, there’s just not enough hours in the day…
Haha, yes, there really isn’t.
Lynn 😀
Sounds like the kind of breathless stories I like! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
I enjoyed his other book, the Whisper Man so look forward to this one very much.
Lynn 😀
Ooh, this one sounds really interesting, hope you enjoy it!
I hope so too 😀
I’m excited for this too! Though I prefer the US cover for it. The flower veins on this one gives me the heebie jeebs. 😛
Yep – and did you look at the centre of the flower?? It’s little tiny hands!!
