It is no secret that I am a huge fan of this author’s novels, having read most of them including all of the Roy Grace series.

This is a stand-alone and is utterly chilling and evil. Georgie is an avid runner and keeps all of her running times and circuits on her app, uploading it so that she can compare her times. On one of the runs the driver of a Porsche, Marcus Valentine, nearly runs her over, not paying attention, at a crossing. She reminds him of a girl from his past, Lynette, who treated him badly.

Marcus and his wife are having a dinner party and one of those invited is a pilot, Roger, who brings along his new fiancé, Georgie. Marcus is a famous gynaecological oncologist and discovers that Georgie is pregnant.

The story twists, snakes and turns in all directions with unbelievable consequences. There is true evil at work but I thoroughly enjoyed the rollercoaster ride.

Thank you to NetGalley, Pan Macmiilan and Peter James for my ARC of ‘I Follow You’ in return for my honest review.

Another brilliant read from Peter James. Highly recommended.

I absolutely love Peter James Roy Grace series so was looking forward to reading this, a different sort of book. It was just as good as his other books, it had me gripped from the first page and I couldn't put it down. It shows what lengths a stalker will go to to get what they want, a creepy and disturbing read but brilliant. You're missing out on a great book of you don't read it!!

I read I Follow You in one sitting. It’s terrifying and unputdownable. Towards the end I felt like I was trapped in a bad dream, unable to wake up and escape from what might happen next. The best thing about this book for me was the pure escapism of a gripping thriller. From the moment I realised how evil Marcus Valentine is, I was hooked on this book. The downsides for me were it felt a little predictable and I guessed a few of the plot twists. I also found Valentine’s character a little one-dimensional. E.g., Psychopath with a troubled upbringing,, obsessive and controlling, works as a surgeon, with absolutely no redeeming features. But despite that this is another cracking read from Peter James.

Another great story from Peter James, probably the best I have read for a considerable time. A totally new concept for crime and setting. A really gripping and fascinating storyline. It keeps the reader engrossed from beginning to end. Not prepared to give anything away, read it and find out for yourself.

A horribly, brilliantly disturbing read of obsession, stalking and how so many of us unwittingly give out far too much personal information online that, combined with timing can have catastrophic consequences

This book is totally to blame for me reading late and then not being able to get to sleep....
Marcus Valentine has it all. He is a well-respected gynecological oncologist; good looking, charming, has a lovely wife and 3 young children, many friends and loves his Porsche. After almost hitting a woman jogger while distracted driving, he is shocked to see she is the spitting image of a young girl he was obsessed with as a teenager who led him on and then embarrassingly dumped him.
With the aid of a jogging app that people can follow other runner's times and track where they go, he starts to look for her. Purely by chance one of his mates brings his pregnant fiancee to dinner whom Marcus hasn't yet met and he can now put a name to his new obsession.
Very quickly his precisely planned life spirals out of control as he convinces himself she wants him as badly as he wants her and he sets out to remove those 'hurdles' that are stopping them being together.
The pace builds relentlessly as he sets about putting his sickening plan in motion. Excellent!

A rather predictable but nonetheless quite exciting Peter James story. I don't necessarily think that quite so much medical information/terminology/research was needed for the plot to unravel and it did seem to me rather unlikely that an eminent consultant would become quite so fixated on a patient/patients no matter the disturbed childhood he may have suffered.

As always with Peter James it's an eminently readable book despite the cliche-ridden characters. As with his DS Roy Grace novels, I think he needs to be a little braver in his writing style if he wants to continue to be considered a "master of the genre".
