Conrad Jones – What Happened To Rachel?

‘What Happened To Rachel?’ by Conrad Jones is a book that is the sixth in a series named The Anglesey Murders. A brilliant set of books that are so worth reading. If you haven’t read them all this is a book that works well as a standalone also because it is so well written you don’t get lost in a quagmire of characters you can’t keep up with.

This is the first book I have encountered which has included the situation we found ourselves in this year with COVID-19, and it made the book feel very current and topical.

The main lynchpin in this book is 14-year-old Rachel who does, as most teenagers do, only tells her parents what she wants them to know. On the final day of term, she purposely avoids her mates so she can walk home alone and never arrives home. The question is, was she taken or did she go willingly?

The issues tackled are major issues of today’s world, this book deals with them all skilfully and weaves everything together as cleverly as a spiders web. Another fantastic book by Conrad Jones that I read constantly in about 2 sittings.Thanks again to Books On The Bright Side and Conrad Jones for the book in order to write my own thoughts on What Happened To Rachel for this Blog Tour today.
