Brilliant unusual read. Set in two timescales this will have you gripped from the start. The consequences that result from hidden secrets

A fantastic read, totally gripping. I read it in one sitting. Lots of twists and turns and full of tension.; Can't wait for more from the author!

This book was an enjoyable read and one I got through in just a few days. The premise was good and I could see the story unfold through the character's eyes. I'm not giving it 5 stars because I feel like the end wasn't as well thought through as the beginning. It seemed rushed and predictable, which is a shame. Still worth a read though!

Heidi Perks has done it again.  

Another unputdownable, addictive read. 

One stormy night, Stella and her family left their island home. Stella never knew why and now, many years later, a body has been found close to that home.

I found all the characters to be unlikeable and the plot to be very drawn out - not for me sadly! 

A huge thanks to Random House UK & NetGalley for gifting me a copy in return for an open & honest review.

⭐⭐

Unfortunately, I have not been able to read and review this book.

After losing and replacing my broken Kindle and getting a new phone I was unable to download the title again for review as it was no longer available on Netgalley. 

I’m really sorry about this and hope that it won’t affect you allowing me to read and review your titles in the future.

Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity.

Heidi Perks has written a cracker here. Long hidden secrets, childhood memories, a creepily claustrophobic setting. Very readable.

I've read Heidi Perks' Her One Mistake before but honestly wasn't blown away but the writing style and suspense that book had gave me hope for future books by her. I read the synopsis of this one and immediately thought I knew exactly how this book would go. I'm big enough to admit I was wrong!

This book had me sure a few times that I knew what was going on and it would pull me in a different direction. My favourite thing about this is that every twist felt real and believable and I could totally understand why I hadn't seen it coming, nothing was too far fetched.

I also adore how this ended. I always worry going into mystery thrillers that everything pans out perfectly but this doesn't exactly do that. Such a refreshing take.

I cant wait to read more from Heidi Perks in future!
While this book I don't think for me had anything too inherently wrong with it its not a full 5 star from me. Feels more like a 4.5/5 Stars

With thanks to Netgalley and Random house uk

Come back for me is an all rounded thriller/mystery book that kept me and will keep the reader guessing, plenty of twists and turns.

I have to admit I struggled with this book.  The story is very long winded and could probably have been told in less pages.  The round up at the end was good, just a shame it took so long to get there.

Wow, this book had me gripped with all the twists and turns. I read it in one go, breaking to eat and even then I wolfed down my food so I could pick it up again. All the characters were believable and fitted well into the story, the plot flowed and I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. 
Loved it!

Imagine remembering halcyon days on your childhood home, an beautiful island that is something straight out of an Enid Blyton mystery. Imagine remembering been torn out of that home and never really knowing why. Then imagine a body found practically in your old back garden. What would you think? Stella Harvey doesn't know what to think but her mind keeps going to the unthinkable. But she has to know now how the body is and why they left so suddenly.

There's enough suspense in this to keep any thriller fan happy. There's more than one mystery to solve and the writer knows exactly how to pace the story out. Heidi Perks is a writer to watch.

I would firstly like to thank Netgalley and the publishers for allowing me the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review.

Going back and forth between two timelines: 1993 and the present, the story remained steadily-paced, slowing unravelling the secrets and lies of the families and the island.
I was hooked! 
All the characters were very cleverly-written, all mysterious and unnerving in their own way. I honestly had no clue who was responsible. It could of been any of them! And the reveal was still quite shocking! 
With plenty of excellent twists and turns, a tightly-wrapped plot and an ending that both shocked and saddening me as I didn't want it to end! 
A must read!

Secrets and lies. My favourite type of book! 
Imagine as a child fleeing your isolated island and never going back. Fast forward 25 years and a body is dug up on that island. From your old home....... 
absolutely loved this. Love Heidi Perks full stop. 
5/5 on Amazon and goodreads.

A local community is stunned when long-buried body is found and no one more so than Stella Harvey because it’s in the garden of her childhood home, the home in Evergreen that at the age of 11, she and her family suddenly fled without explanation some twenty-five years ago.

Desperate to know the truth, Stella comes back to the place she once knew as home on the isolated island. However, the community she left isn’t the quite as she remembered and it certainly is not as welcoming. What do they have to hide?

The book splits between two time lines and they interchange quite a bit. We go back to 1993 and then hop forward to the present day. As we go back and forth, we are thrown some plot twists, a few light truths and one or two tit bits of Information that I wasn’t expecting to come across.

Gripping and really well written!

This book has so many fabulously unsettling twists and turns that really leave you in suspense throughout! A true, all-encapsulating novel !

Love Heidis books she rarely disappoints and here we have another brilliant read. Fast paced and keeps you guessing throughout. What mire could you want??? Can’t wait for the next one.

This book was an excellent read. It sucked me right in from the first page and kept my complete interest until the final page. This is a book I  highly recommend.

Come Back for Me by Heidi Perks is a family tale based on unearthing secrets, lies and deception. The author effectively alternates the narrative between past and present through the investigation undertaken by Stella, the youngest of three children, who spent most of their childhood on a sparsely populated island off the coast of Southern England.

While at no time was I tempted to abandon the story, I felt it unraveled slowly, perhaps too slowly for some readers. I recommend it with reservations.

Stella has lived in Evergreen her whole life until one day her parents suddenly make the whole family leave in the middle of a raging storm. Stella never understood why they left and yearned to return to life on Evergreen. Years later a body is found in the outskirts of the house Stella grew up in and she decide to return to find out the secrets that have haunted her for so long. 

A god book that kept me turning the pages, lots of good twists and turns but I did  not enjoy the ending.
