I love Nora Roberts!
This is an outstanding author. She writes so many different story lines, it is impossible to put her into a category. I fell in love with her latest book. If someone asked me to rate it on a scale of one to five, it would have to be at least an eight. Nora Roberts writes an outstanding mystery!
The Obsession grabs your interest from the first page!
Naomi sees something no young girl should ever see. It is a hot night in rural America, in a time when a lot of people had never heard of air conditioning. The coming storm and the heat woke Naomi and she sees her father leaving the house in the wee hours of the night. Was he going to the creek for a swim? Naomi sneaks out to follow him, never suspecting she is walking into a nightmare. Thomas David Bowes kidnaps young girls to rape and torture and that night, Naomi saves a young woman’s life and sees her father for the monster he is.
Naomi is a beautiful shy young woman, afraid to trust.
All her life Naomi has been afraid to stay in one place. Her uncle has rescued her and her younger brother, changing their last names to try to protect them, but each time someone finds out who her father is and the trouble starts. Naomi never settles in one place for long, but all that changes when she finds herself in a small town with a run down house that calls to her. Next, she finds a man that understands her. Without wanting to, Naomi finds herself opening up to him as well as a half starved dog she picks up on the side of the road. There, is a darkness is waiting. Someone who wants to be like her father finds himself obsessed by Naomi. If you like a mystery don’t miss The Obsession! It is outstanding writing by my favorite author, Nora Roberts.
Happy reading, Linda
