Summary
An Amazon Charts bestselling series。
A Wall Street Journal bestseller。
The moors are a perfect hiding place for a serial killer。 And a chilling return to the past for nascent private investigator Kate Marshall in a pulse-racing thriller by the author of Nine Elms。
Criminology academic Kate Marshall is on a scuba jaunt with her son when they dive toward a shocking discovery: the body of a teenage boy entangled below the surface of the Shadow Sands reservoir。 The detective chief inspector’s too-quick narrative of a tragic drowning doesn’t add up， and when Kate follows the evidence， it leads to a darker discovery。
The victim is only the latest in a series of mysterious deaths and disappearances linked to the moorlands—and a mythic phantom said to hide in the rolling fog。 When a researcher of urban legends vanishes without a trace， Kate and her associate Tristan Harper must act fast and look deep if they hope to find her alive。
But the elusive serial killer they’re hunting isn’t the only one a step ahead of Kate and Tristan。 Someone else is making dead certain that the secrets of Shadow Sands stay buried。

Un altro colpo da maestro per Bryndza。 Bellissimo。Peccato che chi traduce tolga gli spazi。 In questo caso si capisce quando cambia scena ma comunque ora so che sono i traduttori。 Brindza， se guardate gli altri， mette gli spazi。 Questa dichiarazione non influisce sul voto del libro sebbene mi dia fastidio。

Finalmente li o mais recente livro do Robert e não podia ficar mais entusiasmada com a leitura。Erika Foster foi a primeira inspetora a fazer parte dos livros do Robert Bryndza até ao livro anterior， "Mistério em Nine Elms"， que nos deu a conhecer a inspetora Kate Marshall。Foram sete histórias com a Erika como personagem central， tanto que ainda me estou a habituar à Kate， à sua história pessoal e policial。 Kate é uma personagem complexa， que se demora algum tempo a perceber， mas é fácil gostar d Finalmente li o mais recente livro do Robert e não podia ficar mais entusiasmada com a leitura。Erika Foster foi a primeira inspetora a fazer parte dos livros do Robert Bryndza até ao livro anterior， "Mistério em Nine Elms"， que nos deu a conhecer a inspetora Kate Marshall。Foram sete histórias com a Erika como personagem central， tanto que ainda me estou a habituar à Kate， à sua história pessoal e policial。 Kate é uma personagem complexa， que se demora algum tempo a perceber， mas é fácil gostar dela。Quanto ao livro "A Noite Está a Chegar" trata-se de mais um enredo viciante e entusiasmante， de roer as unhas do início ao fim。 Não é tão pormenorizado e tão nojento em termos descritivos como o livro anterior - felizmente！ - mas gostei bastante。 Confesso que， tal como em todos os livros do autor， ia jurar que sabia quem era o assassino， até que cheguei à última página e me deparo com uma enorme reviravolta totalmente inesperada que me deixou de queixo caído。Uma leitura que nos vicia do início ao fim e que vale muito a pena。Robert Bryndza continua a surpreender-me e a merecer o lugar no top dos meus autores preferidos， sem qualquer dúvida！ A todos os amantes de policiais e thrillers， recomendo este e todos os livros anteriores do Robert。 Vão viciar tanto quanto eu。 。。。more

4。5 Really love this author and this series。 Likeable main characters in a seaside setting。 The fact that the characters are private investigators rather than cops sets it apart from other police procedurals/mysteries。 I'm eager to read the next in this series and to also read his other series。 I just wish his books were easier to find at libraries。 4。5 Really love this author and this series。 Likeable main characters in a seaside setting。 The fact that the characters are private investigators rather than cops sets it apart from other police procedurals/mysteries。 I'm eager to read the next in this series and to also read his other series。 I just wish his books were easier to find at libraries。 。。。more

A good follow up to Nine Elms。 Took me just a little longer to get into the story but I devoured the second half of the book。 I like Kate Marshall as an investigator and look forward to how she a Tristan will set up a business。

How does Kate manage to hang onto her humanity？It Kate keeps chasing serial killers， I may not be able to get thru the series。I like Tristan， but Sarah， not so much。

Shadow Sands by Robert Bryndza This book is a brilliant follow up to Nine Elms， having read both books back to back I really enjoyed both。 I love Kate as a character， and really looking forward to the 3rd book in the series。 This book kept me guessing， and my heart thumping as I read the pages， a great read。

Ik heb deze gelezen omdat ik het eerste boek uit de Kate Marshall serie gelezen had en deze cadeau kreeg。 Eerlijk gezegd vond ik deze al een stuk beter dan zijn eerste in de Kate Marshall reeks。 Te mager uitgevallen。 In tegenstelling tot deze thriller。 Hij begint traag， maar eenmaal hij op gang kwam， kon ik er niet meer in stoppen。

"It had almost been a perfect summer。 They had almost been a normal family again， but now there was a dead body。"When you take your teenage son out diving in an attempt to bond you would expect the most traumatic thing you’d find would maybe be a dead fish， not a human body。 But that is just what Kate Marshall and her son Jake find while diving together in the reservoir， and once again Kate and her assistant Tristan are drawn into an investigation that the police want her to forget。 Simon Kendal "It had almost been a perfect summer。 They had almost been a normal family again， but now there was a dead body。"When you take your teenage son out diving in an attempt to bond you would expect the most traumatic thing you’d find would maybe be a dead fish， not a human body。 But that is just what Kate Marshall and her son Jake find while diving together in the reservoir， and once again Kate and her assistant Tristan are drawn into an investigation that the police want her to forget。 Simon Kendal was a strong swimmer who narrowly missed out on the Olympics。 So how did he end up dead at the bottom of the reservoir？ And why are the police so insistent that they drop it？ Kate soon discovers that this is a case with a multitude of unanswered questions and inconsistencies， but she is unprepared for the dark secret they uncover。 The second book in the Kate Marshall series is another triumph。 After enjoying the first book I jumped at the chance to take part in this readalong with the Tandem Collective。 Once again， Robert Bryndza delivers a dark and twisted read that is a thriller at its best。 Absorbing， tense and chilling， this story has it all: a mythical serial killer that lurks in the rolling fog， a desperate search for the latest victim， cover ups， and personal turmoil。 The narration from the killer’s perspective adds mystery and suspense， offering us small clues to try and piece together。 It’s a guessing game with an array of suspects that is full of surprising twists and turns。 And all you can do is enjoy the ride。The dynamic between Kate and Tristan is once again fantastic。 They make a great team and I enjoyed seeing more of Tristan’s personal life and background in this installment， allowing us to get to know him better and building a fuller picture of him as a character。 It makes him feel like more of an equal part of the team than in the first book， which I really liked。 Kate’s complex history is already well known to us at this point， and it feels like she can’t catch a break。 Like every time things start to go well， life has other ideas。 I really felt for her as I know how hard it is to connect with your teenagers even when you don’t have the troubled and fractured history that she has with Jake， and while my ex isn’t on a level comparable with Kate’s， I do know the terror of your child wanting to connect with an estranged parent that you know is toxic and manipulative。 And she’s going through all of this while investigating crimes and trying to rescue someone from a murderer’s clutches。 Absorbing， darkly atmospheric， suspenseful and deftly told， I couldn’t put this down， and I flew through it in just a few hours instead of the planned five days of the readalong。 Bryndza has created a must read series for anyone who enjoys this genre。 。。。more

Robert Bryndza ancora una volta si dimostra un grande autore di Thriller。 La casa nella nebbia mi ha incollata alle sue pagine in modo allucinante， ansia e curiosità si sono mescolati pagine dopo pagine fino alla fine。La professoressa Kate Marshall e il suo collaboratore sono sempre i protagonisti indiscussi， per la prima volta li abbiamo conosciuti nel romanzo precedentemente pubblicato da Newton Compton di Bryndza che ho letto e apprezzato。 *In alto nelle info potete trovare i link delle mie Robert Bryndza ancora una volta si dimostra un grande autore di Thriller。 La casa nella nebbia mi ha incollata alle sue pagine in modo allucinante， ansia e curiosità si sono mescolati pagine dopo pagine fino alla fine。La professoressa Kate Marshall e il suo collaboratore sono sempre i protagonisti indiscussi， per la prima volta li abbiamo conosciuti nel romanzo precedentemente pubblicato da Newton Compton di Bryndza che ho letto e apprezzato。 *In alto nelle info potete trovare i link delle mie precedenti recensioni。Kate e suo figlio durante un'immersione trovano il cadavere di un giovane ragazzo。 L'annegamento è la causa più semplice， ma la poliziotta che vive in Kate， inizia ad indagare insieme a Tristan， e ben presto scopriranno che anche altre persone sono scomparse， inseguito ritrovate morte nel bacino idrico di Shadow Sands。La grande Kate， ancora una volta con dovizia di attenzione e infinite ricerche， riuscirà a risolvere il caso insieme a Tristan。Nonostante La casa nella nebbia sia un thriller， Bryndza è riuscito ad amalgamare nella storia altri elementi importanti come la famiglia e i figli， il tutto inserito in modo che tutto fosse collegato。 Bravo lo scrittore che attraverso una scrittura che cattura， i pov dei personaggi， cerca un po' di sviare l'attenzione sul vero protagonista della storia: perché le vittime spariscono e poi vengono ritrovate morte？ L'attenzione è sempre alta， instillando altra ansia。Risolvere l'enigma che pende sul bacino idrico di Shadow Sands è la loro priorità il costo molto alto。 Ma ne varrà davvero la pena。La violenza si manifestava in molti modi。 Quando arrivava con un incontrollato impeto di rabbia era incasinata， non pianificata。Aureliavoto: 4 e mezzo 。。。more

3，5 estrelasA NOITE ESTÁ A CHEGAR foi o último livro que li em junho， do tamanho perfeito para encaixar uma última leitura no fim do mês。 Adorei rever Kate e Tristan， de quem já não me lembrava， admito。 Achei a resolução final um bocado fácil demais， um bocado ingénua， talvez， mas foi rápido o suficiente para não me deixar muito nervosa。

I rate this a 4。5 book。 I have read all of the author's previous books and they are page turners。 You do not know the answer to the puzzle until the very end。 Looking forward to his next one， Darkness Falls。 I rate this a 4。5 book。 I have read all of the author's previous books and they are page turners。 You do not know the answer to the puzzle until the very end。 Looking forward to his next one， Darkness Falls。 。。。more

I really enjoyed this 2nd book in the Kate Marshall series。 However， you SHOULD read book 1 Nine Elms first， to get the full background。 I look forward to reading book 3 in this series。

Robert Bryndza's second book in the Kate Marshall series is just as exciting and dark as Nine Elms。 In book #2 Kate and her son Jake discover the body of a young man in the Shadow Sands Reservoir。 Kate and her assistant Tristan are hired by a family member to investigate his death and soon discover other strange happenings at the reservoir。 Thanks to NetGalley for my digital copy of Shadow Sands。 I look forward to the next in the series。 Robert Bryndza's second book in the Kate Marshall series is just as exciting and dark as Nine Elms。 In book #2 Kate and her son Jake discover the body of a young man in the Shadow Sands Reservoir。 Kate and her assistant Tristan are hired by a family member to investigate his death and soon discover other strange happenings at the reservoir。 Thanks to NetGalley for my digital copy of Shadow Sands。 I look forward to the next in the series。 。。。more

Similar comments to my rev\iew of the first in this series。 An entertaining "who dun it？" as long as you are not too concerned with the finer details or police procedural correctness。 Some good characters， a decent plot and several potential suspects for you to work through in making up your own mind on who is responsible before the final reveal。 I have rated the book at three stars。 Similar comments to my rev\iew of the first in this series。 An entertaining "who dun it？" as long as you are not too concerned with the finer details or police procedural correctness。 Some good characters， a decent plot and several potential suspects for you to work through in making up your own mind on who is responsible before the final reveal。 I have rated the book at three stars。 。。。more

4。5 stars really。 Another excellent story with twists and tension as well as believable characters who have their own family backstories but they don’t hinder the main plot。 It helps if you’ve read book 1 but there’s enough information to make this stand on its own。looking forward to book 3。

Well that was a bloody good read！This was my first readalong with Tandem Collective and I couldn’t have asked for a better book - I remember seeing that I had 30 pages left and still had about 3 suspects in mind！Without giving too much away， I remember thinking briefly that the killer was the killer because of some time frames that were mentioned but had discounted it as I had other theories so this is certainly a book that keeps you guessing！I hadn’t read Nine Elms which is the first book in th Well that was a bloody good read！This was my first readalong with Tandem Collective and I couldn’t have asked for a better book - I remember seeing that I had 30 pages left and still had about 3 suspects in mind！Without giving too much away， I remember thinking briefly that the killer was the killer because of some time frames that were mentioned but had discounted it as I had other theories so this is certainly a book that keeps you guessing！I hadn’t read Nine Elms which is the first book in the Kate Marshall series but there’s enough in this book that you can read it as a stand-alone no problem… except now I really want to read Nine Elms！ I hear there’s another book in the series coming out soon， I’m not sure how that will work as I think the personal connection between Kate， Tristan and the crimes they are investigating helped drive this one for me but I’d certainly more than happily read the next one to see where Rob takes it！ 。。。more
