At Your Door is the second book in the DCI Anna Tate series by J P Carter and it is a fast moving police thriller hat keeps you hooked from the first page to the last one.

There are two distinct storylines to this book but the author deftly manages to ensure that things do not get confusing whilst allowing both stories to take shape.

There are a number of twists and turns that kept me interested throughout this book which I definitely recommend

Book 2 in the DCI Anna Tate series. Woman found dead in woods, who is she? There are 3 suspects and all are known to the corpse. Which one did it? Lots of twists and turns. There's a second storyline going on. DCI Anna Tate's daughter has been missing for 10 years. There are more progressive knowledge about what happened to Chloe where her dad Matthew never returned her to her mother after a weekend stay with father. I must say that with the ending, does this mean there's more to come in the series? I do hope so

Brilliant read, well worth your time.

Second book in this series so tense so many twists and turns an author I will be following..Love a thriller that keeps me guessing racing through the pages so good.#netgalley #avonbooksuk

Ooooh if I thought in safe hands was good - then this was outstanding! I could not put it down!!
Well written, great characters and a super exiting back story involving Anna’s missing daughter Chloe.
My heart skipped a few beats at times it was so exciting!
I think J.P Carter is my new favourite author and I cannot wait to see what’s in store for Anna and her team next time!
Loved it!

I’d like to thank Avon Books UK and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read ‘At Your Door’, the second in the Detective Anna Tate series written by J P Carter, in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

DCI Anna Tate of the Met’s Major Investigation Team is called out when the body of model Holly Blake is found on Barnes Common. Enquiries become complex as the victim’s mother is a former Assistant Commissioner now hoping to become the new Mayor of London, and one of the prime suspects is a Member of Parliament. Meanwhile, Anna is still searching for her daughter Chloe who was abducted by her father when two years old. Will new information just received help Anna find or daughter or will it get in the way of her police investigations?

As soon as I started reading ‘At Your Door’ I knew I was going to enjoy it as the plot was well-written with lots of drama and excitement, convincing suspects, and twists and turns. I like the character of Anna Tate who comes over as tough and totally dedicated to finding the truth. I was completely engrossed from page one and although I guessed the identity of the killer early on the final twist still took me by surprise. I can wholeheartedly recommend this novel for anyone who enjoys a fast-paced and action-packed police thriller.

At Your Door is the second book in the DCI Anna Tate series. Last year I read the first book - In Safe Hands and absolutely loved it so I was excited to read the next book. It certainly lived up to my expectations and once again left me wanting more - bring on book 3!!

This book picks up just a few weeks after the events of In Safe Hands. This book can be read as a stand alone but I recommend reading them in order to get the full back story of Anna. Anna and her team are called to a horrific murder scene at Barnes Common. A young woman has been murdered and her identity makes this a high profile case, throwing Anna into the spotlight once again. The woman is the daughter of a prominent MP and the family is hiding all sorts of secrets. While all of this is happening there has also been developments in the case of Anna's missing daughter Chloe. Anna struggles to stay on top of both cases and is in serious danger of burnout.

Thanks to Avon Books UK and Netgalley for my advanced copy of this book to read. All opinions are my own and are in no way biased.

Wow, fantastic modern thriller about DCI Anna Tate. The second in the series where she deals with gruesome murder. Also trying to find her daughter Chloe who vanished ten years ago, kidnapped by her father.

Police procedural set in and around London. Main character is a gritty female detective who continues to. hunt for her abducted daughter as well as solving a tricky case.. Lots of twists and a dramatic conclusion.

Who murdered Holly Blake and left her corpse in a park? DCI Anna Tate is trying to figure that out even as a more personal and important case billows back up. I missed the first book but was able to immediately understand the situation with Chloe, Anna's daughter who was taken by her ex 1o years ago when Chloe was 2. Age enhancement has put Chloe back on the radar, with a new photo published and so there's a new lead and more info and, well, no spoilers. While the two threads are both well done (there are good twists in the Holly situation as well), the more emotional one is, obviously, Anna's hunt for Chloe. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC. This is a well plotted thriller with one darn good character in Anna.

The story was interesting and the characters pretty well developed. However, I kept feeling like we weren't getting the full story - especially as the characters interacted. I would read others from Carter but would only give it two stars.

Absolutely fantastic had me gripped!!! Loved it! Can't wait for more from.this author. Storyline was great, characters were easy to.connect with

Thank you for the advanced copy

At your Door By J.P Carter is the second in the DCI Anna Tate series. I have not read the first but, you can read this as a standalone.
A young woman is found dead on Barnes common and when she is identified, it happens that she is the daughter of ex police commissioner turned MP. Her Name Holly Blake a Freelance Model, not only that, her lover is also an MP. DI Anna Tate is under pressure from her bosses and the media to find the killer.
We also continue to learn the search of Anna’s daughter Chloe. Who was abducted by her ex-husband, Anna hasn’t seen her in ten years but after a newspaper interview, new leads open for her? Sophie who has been looking after Chloe (Alice she is now called) for 7 years after Sophie’s husband was murdered by her husband. But Chloe disappears one day and Sophie needs Anna’s help to find her.
This is a gripping fast paced thriller, that I really enjoyed especially about the hunt for Chloe. I loved it so much I will be reading the others in this series.

It's my first read from the author and although I haven't read the first book in the series I didn't felt like missing anything because the author has given plenty clues and details about what happened in the past that I could see a bigger picture of the story.
I always loved policed procedural stories and this book didn't disappoint me at all.
The two different stories/cases are full of twists and turns , some were predictable some were very unexpected and that's what made me read the book in one sitting and I'll definitely recommend this book to any of my friends who are looking for a great read.
I'll looking forward to read more books by the author in the series because the main character is one of my favourites so far this year.

I would like to thank Netgalley and Avon Books for an advance copy of At Your Door, the second novel to feature DCI Anna Tate of the Met.

It is just two weeks since the conclusion of her last case but birthday celebrations are put on hold when Anna and the team get called out to a murder. A young woman has been found murdered in a Barnes park. She is soon identified as freelance model Holly Blake and what they discover about Holly’s life and friends brings them a world of pressure and press interest. In the meantime a newspaper interview about Anna’s missing daughter, Chloe, produces some leads and fresh hope.

I thoroughly enjoyed At Your Door which has two compelling plot lines and completely unexpected resolutions. The two stories run in tandem as the narrative alternates between them. Holly’s murder is a self contained plot but the Chloe tale is a continuation from the previous novel, In Safe Hands but to be fair the author recaps all the salient points so there is no need to have read it before starting this one.

I love a good procedural so I was surprised to find Chloe’s story the more compelling of the two. Don’t get me wrong, both are well constructed plots with a series of reveals in all the right places, several twists and the aforementioned unexpected resolutions but the Chloe plots edges it for tension, mystery and emotion. I was gripped, desperate to know where it was going and why. In comparison the scope of Holly’s investigation is so wide she kind of gets lost in it so it’s hard to feel the same affinity although I loved the depiction of the press hysteria surrounding her murder which seems extremely realistic.

I don’t feel that I know DCI Anna Tate all that well, even after two novels. I like the way she grabs hold of her cases with authority, rattling off lists of tasks in a clear headed way. That’s my idea of a professional police officer. Mostly, though, she’s defined by her loss of and hunt for Chloe who was kidnapped by her father ten years previously as a two year old. It would be good to see her personality expanded in future novels.

At Your Door is a good read which I have no hesitation in recommending.

While there was great potential with this book, I struggled with the pacing and the writing style. I’m not sure if it had something to do with the fact that I hadn’t read the first book in the series but I found myself struggling at times to get through. Overall it was ok but I don’t know that I would recommend it to others. I’m not sure if reading the first book in the series prior to this would have changed my opinion.

Thanks to NetGalley for this eARC which I received for free in exchange for the honest review which I posted above.

I loved the first book in this series In Safe Hands which I awarded five stars. I was really looking forward to to learning more about Anna Tate and the search for her child who was kidnapped by her then husband ten years ago. In this book Anna is given the case of a young woman found naked in the woods with her throat cut. Nothing is what it seems. Also her personal life is thrown I to chaos as she has news of her daughter. This is a real page turner, lots of action, packed with tension and suspense and plenty of twists and turns. I read this book in one sitting finally turning the last page at 2.am. A very tired and very happy reader. An easy five stars and so Highly Recommended.
I would like to thank the author, Avon Books UK and Netgalley for the ARC in return for giving an honest review.

An ok police procedural, however found this a bit of a slog at times. Felt the subplot around Anna’s daughter more interesting, especially in the last 20/30 or so pages. The main story around the murder of a young model seemed rather drawn out and the writing style is still a bit jerky and clunky.

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the arc and giving me the opportunity to read this book in exchange for my review.

So starting this book, I didn't think i was going to be able to get into it. Boy was I wrong! Awesome book. It caught my attention pretty quickly. I never was able to guess on who killed her-just didn't seem to be enough obvious clues for me to guess. However, never ever would have thought it was the person it ended up being. The suspense was good. The ending was good. I will have to go back and read her first book. Love this new author.

A really great and solid police procedural. It was interesting because it had the major duel storyline which means that JP Carter really packed a lot of plot into the story. I haven't read his first book in this series but that didn't affect my enjoyment of this title at all. I was able to come into this book with no prior knowledge of Anna and that was completely fine!

Overall, it had some twists and turns and many plausible suspects so it's quite hard to figure out whose done the murder until the very end. I would for sure read another title by this author.

I received an ARC from NetGalley/the publisher for my honest review.

I had difficulty getting into this book--there seemed to be too much going on and not enough attention paid to either of the ongoing stories.
