As soon as I finished The Girl in the Ice, I fell completely in love with Erika and her story. The way she trusts her gut and embraces her flaws makes her incredibly relatable and trustworthy—after all, she is only human. Her character is brilliantly written. The Night Stalker took my appreciation to another level, beautifully highlighting the importance of friendship. Due to the depth of the characters and the intricate plot, the story feels profoundly real. It powerfully reminds us that despite all the evil in the world, there are still people who will fight for the good at any cost. I can’t wait to see how Erika’s journey unfolds; the second book is masterfully crafted and kept me turning the pages late into the night.
