They were all murdered by the same man.
He hunted them online, masquerading as an eligible bachelor. Then he played the perfect gentleman, a thick layer of charm and a thousand-watt smile hiding the fact that his first dates end in shallow graves.
He’s gotten away with murder three times now.
The only thing that might keep him from killing again? The women he murdered.
Meghan, Brecia, and Skye might be dead, but they’re not gone. They’ve found each other. And they won’t rest until they find a way to stop him.
The haunt is on. (Synopsis courtesy of Amazon.)
I saw many recommendations of Ask for Andrea on a particular Facebook group I’m part of, so I simply had to get hold of a copy and see if would really be as great as everyone was saying! But what is it about?
Ask for Andrea centres around three women (Meghan, Brecia and Skye) who are all horrifically murdered by the same man. The plot is based on these three women seeking justice - ensuring the man does not get away with his crimes and can never hurt another woman. How can they do that beyond the grave? As ghosts of course!
Now I’m not usually into the supernatural within fiction, I wouldn’t usually gravitate towards this, but I found it completely compelling and unique. It took me back to when I first watched Ghost, a film I loved! My heart was broken for each of the women with their lives cruelly cut short. It covers grief from both the perspective of the living and the dead and was incredibly moving.
Whilst it took some time to get to grips with each person’s narrative, this came together for me in time. I felt the story, whilst dramatic from the offset, really built as it progressed with all the tension surrounding someone else who was in danger leading to some exceptionally tense closing chapters. I understand why so many people have thoroughly enjoyed this book!
