Kara Knight can't wait to leave her hometown for the promise of nursing school and a fresh start on her future--leaving behind an over protective mother, a broken heart and painful memories. However, twenty-five miles away, the twin she doesn't know exists is determined to be reunited with the sister he cannot forget.



Kara is abducted and thrown into her obsessive captor's delusional world. As the past she thought she knew unravels around her, Kara struggles to make sense of the memories that come creeping back, threatening her sanity and her safety. Meanwhile, Kara's mother races against time to save the daughter she fears she will lose when a long-held secret is revealed. The hours tick away as her captor plays out his plan--to take Kara with him into death at the exact moment of their birth, never to be separated again.


TRACES OF KARA is an action packed, pulse pounding psychological thriller/suspense novel that features a determined killer who slowly loses his grip on reality as his carefully detailed plan starts to fall apart and a heroine determined to move forward with her life who now must reconcile everything she believed to be true about her family with the reality of their tragic past.


From International bestselling and award-winning author Melissa Foster comes her newest pulse-pounding thriller and Kindle Bestseller (Amazon US & UK)

Review
Traces of Kara by Melissa Foster is a true page turner.  It will pull you in and won't let go until the end.   This is a thoroughly engrossing suspense novel, probably one of the best I've read in awhile.   It is one that I couldn't put down after the first few chapters.

You will feel like you are in the middle of this story.  You will want to get up and yell "Watch out!"  It will keep you guessing on what is true and what isn't true.  Melissa Foster does a wonderful job of painting a picture and grabbing your attention.

I felt myself being drawn to Kara.  She has such big dreams, and has gone through a horrible relationship.  She has an overprotective mother.  Kara feels like she is being smothered.  Little does she know what lays ahead of her.  She will need a strength that she doesn't know she has.

Her mother thinks very little of herself.  She doesn't believe that she is strong.  However, we find that she has a strength that we all wish we had.  Thankfully, most of us have never been put to the test, and hopefully never will be.

This is a wonderful story of what a mother will do to protect her child.  A mother's love can seem stifling at time's but we wouldn't want to live without it.  Sometimes we just need to find a nice balance which isn't always easy to do.  I think all moms are afraid that we might drive our children away at times because we get a little overprotective.

If you love suspense novels, you will love this book, and it's intriguing plot and characters that feel they have something to prove.
