By Lisa Gardner
Every time I thought I figured out who did what and why,
there was another twist and turn to the story Right Behind You. Telly and Sharlah are siblings separated 8 years
ago after Telly killed their father in order to protect them. Though Telly
saved Sharlah back then, it seems now he's the one that needs saving. Sharlah and Telly have not seen or spoken to
each other since that dreadful night and both are now with loving foster
families. When Telly's foster parents are
found murdered in their own home, Telly is the most likely suspect. If he killed once, what's to stop him from
killing again? When two other victims
turn up dead at a local gas station and Telly's image is found staring into the
camera right before he shoots it out, it seems there is no doubt.
In the meantime, Sharlah is awaiting her permanent adoption
by Quincy and Rainie - a true law and order family. When they find evidence
that Telly seems to be stalking Sharlah, her safety becomes their number one
priority even though Sharlah is convinced her brother (the Telly that she
remembers) would never hurt her. Is
Telly still that protective figure Sharlah remembers, or is he now a predator that
she must fear?
As a Lisa Gardner fan, it was good to have Quincy and Rainie
back. I liked the characters of Telly Ray
and Sharlah May Nash. I think Lisa
Gardner did a great service by allowing them to tell their own story. It definitely
brought more dimension to their characters and it made their problems that much
more real.
