Fantastic novel, fantastic series! Jumping back into the world of DI Fawley is always a nail-biting and entertaining experience! If you haven’t read the prior installments, you can absolutely start with this gem! I was completely captivated from the very first page, the pacing is perfect and that combined with a really well thought out storyline is a winning combination. My mind went through several conspiracy theories throughout, which is alway a sign of Cara Hunter’s epic writing abilities— love that! Cara Hunter once again has come through with a 5 star, twisty-turny, mystery/ thriller and I am already excited for the next novel in this must read series!

Oh wow. I really could not put down Cara Hunter's most recent DI Adam Fawley novel--All the Rage This is a novel where the title fits all too well. All the Rage is a novel about hatred and jealously and how easily it is to destroy a life. I really don't want to provide any spoilers, so I am going to be purposely vague. I read a lot of mysteries, and as a result, it is tough to keep me guessing for long, but Hunter threw in enough twists and turns that it took me a long time to guess this ending. The mysteries abound, but as each one unfolds it becomes increasingly difficult to put down All the Rage.

Hunter's talent is storytelling. She creates plots that contain the kind of complexity that readers who love mysteries cannot wait to read. The relevance to contemporary life is even more attractive. The characters in All the Rage have depth and complexity, but at the same time, they are frightfully ordinary. These events could happen to anyone. That is why the novels are so scary and why a tightly-woven resolution matters. Every character, even those who appear just briefly, are described so well that readers can easily "see" them. Hunter also has an eye for the quirks of real life. One reason these DI Fawley novels work so well is that readers enjoy meeting Fawley, Alex, Somer, and Baxter. We have all met a Quinn at some point. We understand and like these characters.

Thank you to the author, to publisher William Morrow, and to NetGalley for providing this ARC. I recommend All the Rage with real enthusiasm.

The emotional core of the main story lies in the complexities of the characters' lives. Adam Fawley and his team, including DS Gislingham, DC Everett, DC Somer, DC Baxter, and the new addition, DC Anthony Asante, navigate personal challenges while relentlessly pursuing justice. The dynamics within the team contribute to the narrative's depth, portraying them as dedicated, hardworking individuals with a shared commitment to uncovering the truth.

Many thanks to NetGalley and William Morrow for sharing this incredible book's digital reviewer copy in exchange for my honest thoughts.

All the Rage by Cara Hunter is the fourth novel in the author's DI Fawley detective series.

After being abducted and assaulted, a teenage girl somehow managed to escape from her captor. She is traumatized and needs to heal, but the police need her help to catch her assailant.

Without the girl's assistance, DI Adam Fawley's investigation is at a dead end. When another girl vanishes under the same circumstances, he recognizes a disturbing pattern and a possible link to his past.

Sounds good, right? It was, for the most part, but there were lots of characters to keep track of. The actual storyline and format of how the story unfolded felt disjointed at times and hard to follow. It was a pretty quick read as I read it on the weekend. It did hold my interest, but it did feel slow in places.

I did like getting to know DI Fawley better, and I like the character. Overall, it is a good mystery with elements that kept me guessing. I would recommend this book and this author. I will check out more by this author as well.
