Somewhere out there, Miles has children. And they might be about to inherit both the good and bad from him - possibly his fortune, or possibly something more sinister.

PRAISE FOR FIND YOU FIRST: ‘Find You First starts with a bang and ends with an even bigger one. Barclay is a terrific writer, but he’s outdone himself with this. It’s the best book of his career.

Try Linwood Barclay’s insanely paced, wildly entertaining Find You First’ JOE HILL ‘A full-throttle powerhouse of a thriller – Linwood Barclay is in a class of his own’ T.M.

Another very good read by Linwood Barclay. I found this book a little slow in places but that in no way took away from the enjoyment of this book, I read it in one sitting so eager was I to find out the ending. 3.5
