This is the second DCI Anna Tate novel and is even more compelling than the first. Anna is given the case of a young woman who has been discovered naked with her throat cut, in the woods. The murder victim just happens to be the daughter of an ex police commissioner. Holly had been a freelance model. Her lover had also been an MP. Anna. Is now under pressure to get this murder case solved. In addition to this we alos find out more about Anna's daughter who had been kidnapped by her ex husband twelve years ago.
Yet another fast paced excellent read by this author. Looking forward to reading the next books in this series

Really enjoyed getting to conclude Anna Tate’s story following the cliffhanger in ‘in safe hands’. Tense, fast paced and exciting. Great novel

Despite being the second in a series, I delved right into AT YOUR DOOR and couldn't put it down. And although it picks up where the previous one left off, it can still be read as a standalone. There's nothing worse than coming into a series and not knowing what is going on because every book leads into another. But this one is so nail-biting and page-turning, I don't think I had time to notice.

DCI Anna Tate and her team are called to investigate the murder of a young woman found naked with her throat cut on Barnes Common. The victim, it turns out, is the daughter of a former police commissioner. Enter a prominent politician as her lover and Anna is under pressure to solve this murder quickly and cleanly.

However, Holly's murder is not the only case that consumes Anna. Ten years ago, her then 2 year old daughter was abducted by her ex-husband and Anna has never given up searching for her. Chloe would now me 12 and as the narrative shifts between the current case and that of Anna's search for her daughter, the reader is given a glimpse into Anna's tortured mind.

AT YOUR DOOR is a fast paced, addictive and thrilling crime thriller that will have you turning the pages faster than the speed of light. I love how this story is darker than your usual procedurals and being drawn into Anna's private hell gives us pause to empathise with her.

A gripping read, AT YOUR DOOR is perfect for fans of gritty and dark crime fiction such as Katerina Diamond and M.J. Arlidge.

This is the second book in the DCI Anna Tate series and I absolutely loved this. The first book was really good and I was slightly nervous about reading this one in case it wouldn’t be as good..Well I needn’t have worried. Right from the first page I,was hooked and reading this was such a joy it was that much of a great read.

It was a thrilling read and I loved every page. I found the ending really sad but I can’t wait to read more from the Anna Tate series. I really want to know what happens next. The writing was amazing and the characters were all really interesting. I’m so excited to read more from this author.

Very well written and even though this is book 2 in the series I didn't have to read the first one to know what was going on. Good characters and a gripping storyline.

At Your Door by J.P. Carter is the second installment of a series focused on DCI Anna Tate. Having not read the introduction to the series, I venture to say that this book works absolutely fine as a standalone. I will, however, add the first novel, In Safe Hands, to my 'tbr' list. I look forward to delving deeper into the character of DCI Tate, and would love to catch up on the backstory of her daughter's disappearance.

DCI Anna Tate is called in to investigate the murder of a young woman, and a prominent politician appears to be the prime, and only, suspect. But this particular case is not all that consumes Anna. Ten years previously, her two year old daughter had been abducted by her ex-husband, and Anna has never given up hope of finding her. As the narrative shifts between the current case and the ten years in which she has continued to search for her darling Chloe, we are able to glean a glimpse of Anna's tortured psyche.

The author has crafted a gripping police procedural and a decade old mystery, and woven them harmoniously into an absolutely engrossing and fully compelling read. I did not want this one to end, and look forward to the continuation of the series.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Avon Books UK for this ARC.

So when I first started this book it did not capture me right away and I am not sure why. But I gave it a second run and enjoyed it. Anna Tate has the backstory of having her daughter kidnapped at age 2 by her ex-husband and that backstory is one significant part of this book. There is also a murder mystery which I have to say I did not figure out ahead of time. There were many twists. The backstory I did predict some parts of it and I am happy that the third in the series is out so I can further follow that story. I have not read book one but did not find that affecting my reading of this book. The author covered the necessary back story. I enjoy Anna Tate and am already into book 3 so I can stay with her.


I was given a copy by Netgalley in exchange for an unbiased review.

This book was terrifying and so good! Loved it l. The idea intrigued me and I’m glad I took a chance on it. Well written and unique.

This was an amazing follow up to the first Anna Tate book (which I loved). The backstory of the abduction of Anna's daughter, 10 years ago, is as a great addition to the main story line and adds suspense and intrigue to the writing. A very interesting plot and as it unfolded there were several suspects for the murder. This book certainly kept me guessing and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a crime thriller!

There is a mystery with the murdered victims and there were many involved with her death.

Sadly, my guesses where incorrect. The way Holly was killed was far from what I was thinking. Two thumbs up to the author!

Another interesting storyline is about DI Anna's missing daughter and she was finally reunited with her. Of course, it was a cliff hanger in the end! I will definitely be looking forward to the third installment in this series!

Thank you to Avon and Netgalley for the ARC!

Received an ARC from Netgalley in exchange for a honest review. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own

The 2 in a series but can be read as a stand alone. Interesting plot that keeps you guessing.

This is the second book in the DI Anna Tate series, and I enjoyed this one even more than the first one!! While still trying, after ten years, to solve the disappearance of her daughter, Anna has to investigate the death of a young girl found in the woods. Nothing is as it seems, and I was captivated until the very end.
Highly recommended.

Wow JP Carter has renewed my love of thrillers with this fantastic novel which i truly found extremely difficult to put down.
DCI Anna Tate is the strong and likeable main character and she will lead you through this investigation at a remarkable pace and at no point will she leave you feeling bored or disillusioned.
As well as the murder investigation Anna has to deal with her own private heartache of trying to trace her daughter who has been missing for ten years.
Can't wait to read more of this series - I would give it 6 stars of i could - loved it.

The second in the DCI Anna Tate series, another brilliant read.
Anna is called to deal with the death of a young woman in a remote spot. Holly’s mother is an ex-police chief and a current politician aiming to be the mayor of London.
This is pressure enough, but when it emerges that Holly was involved with a high profile politician, the case hits the news.
Running through this is the story of Chloe, Anna’s now 11 year old daughter who was snatched by her ex-husband. Anna has searched relentlessly for her, could she be close to finding her?
Really enjoyed this and can't wait for the next one.

At Your Door: (A DCI Anna Tate Crime Thriller, Book 2)
5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is my second book my this author and I have loved them both.This author really knows how to bring the characters to life & draw his readers completely into the story. I was hooked from the first page and was sad when it ended because i did not want it to be over.
Both the main story line and the secondary story line were so well done. My favorite one was Anna and her search for her daughter. I hope the author keeps the series going. I love Anna and want more !!!!!! I'm seriously hooked. At Your door is a fast paced book with lots of twist and turns, plenty of action and great character development. The fact that this author can keep 2 story lines going in one book and never get boring is amazing . I became immersed in the storyline at the very beginning of the book. The characters are interesting and the book was a page-turner.The writing is top notch and the plot is even better.The ending has such an unexpected twist that will leave you with your mouth hanging open.If you haven't read any of his books yet, and enjoy great crime thrillers, I would definitely suggest giving them a try.
This series is well worth your time and money.It's packed with suspense and action. This author can not write fast enough. I am already craving the next book in this series.
As always if you like the book you read please take the time to leave a review for the author in places like goodreads & Amazon. It does not have to be long. Just a few sentences saying you liked the book will do. Authors really appreciate every review they get.
Thank you NetGalley and Avon for the advance digital copy of At Your Door by J.P. Carter in exchange for an honest review

My first time reading J.P.Carter and it won't be the last! I loved it!

Well written thriller that keeps you wanting to turn the pages until the end!

Strong storyline, good characters, good pace, captivating thriller, not boring!

Thank you to NetGalley and Avon for the ARC of this book. This is my honest review. All opinions are my own.

It’s always a worry when you love a first book so much that the follow up won’t live up to it. I told everyone about the first book in this series and they all loved it and this is no different. It had me hooked from the beginning and I love how the story with Chloe’s disappearance continued to unravel alongside the new case. I can see how the third book is going to be set up to delve deeper into that story from the ending and i for one can’t wait. Highly highly recommend. Thanks to the author, Netgalley and Avon for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

#AtYourDoor #NetGalley I loved the first book in this series so much that I was really excited to get to read the second in the series. Although I always worry that the second book may not live up to the brilliantness of the first in this case there was nothing to worry about. I love crime thrillers that are full of action and this one has it in abundance, I just kept turning the pages late into the night in a bid to discover who and how Anna would uncover the truth. I loved the side story relating to Anna's daughter Chloe and look forward to seeing how this relationship will develop in future. A blistering 5 stars!!

I couldn’t wait to read the second book in this series featuring DCI Anna Tate. I loved the first book and this one certainly didn’t disappoint. Anna is heading an investigation into the murder of Holly, a model and whose mother was Assistant Commissioner and Mayor of London. Her boyfriend was an MP. This puts Anna under pressure as multi secrets and suspects are revealed. Anna is still searching for her missing daughter Chloe who was abducted by her father. New clues emerge that have Anna hoping they will be reunited soon but she knows that she cannot allow herself to be distracted from the case. It is an action packed book, filled with tension, suspense and lots of suspects that will leave you guessing until the end. A highly recommended read. I can’t wait fir book number three.
Thanks to NetGalley and Avon Books for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book.
