I started 2024 with @terriparlatoauthor’s book What Waits In The Woods and started 2025 reading her newest book and continuation of the Detective Rita Myers series, Watch Your Back.
This third book has sealed Parlato as a must read author for me. I love the character, Detective Rita Myers. She has depth and is flawed, but she is smart and dedicated to her investigations. The twists in this story were surprising and kept coming, especially in the second half of the book.
I highly recommend this book and Parlato’s other books especially if you enjoy dark crime fiction with complex domestic relationships.
