Summary
Her shoes pinched as she shivered in the cold night air. She just wanted to get home. A taxi slowed to a halt next to her, and as she buckled her seat belt, she noticed the child’s seat next to her and felt safe. But when she saw his eyes in the mirror, a shiver of terror shook her to her core…
When a young woman’s body is found on a patch of wet grass in the early hours of the morning, Detective Lottie Parker mourns the young life so brutally snatched away. Looking at the victim’s flimsy strappy top, damp from the dew and soaked with blood, it is clear that this young girl never came home from a night out. Lottie’s heart breaks as she thinks of the girl’s parents finding their daughter’s empty bed and she vows to catch the murderer.
The young woman is soon identified as Laura Nolan, and Lottie watches the blood drain from her mother Diana’s face when she tells her the terrible news. Diana reveals that Laura was on a date the night she was killed, but she doesn’t know who with… and Laura’s empty bedroom with make-up scattered across her dressing table offers no clues.
Lottie and her team rush to trace Laura’s last moments. But hope at a potential breakthrough turns to horror for Lottie when another young woman, Shannon Kenny is reported missing, last seen climbing into a taxi with a broken light, close to the same bar.
But then, Lottie discovers a connection between Laura and Shannon that totally overturns everything she thought she knew. The killer didn’t stalk these two young women at random. He knew exactly who they were and where they would be. But can Lottie stop him before he strikes again?
A completely compelling story from bestselling author Patricia Gibney. If you like Rachel McLean, Kendra Elliott and Robert Dugoni, Her Last Walk Home will have you hooked.

a dark storyline but worth reading
Her Last Walk Home is the fourteenth novel in the DI Lottie Parker series by Patricia Gibney. And it proves to be a brilliant, if disturbing entry in this strong thriller series by the Irish author.
As always, I look forward to the release of a new novel by Patricia Gibney as I know that I will enjoy an exciting storyline, lead by well-developed and entertaining characters. Since first meeting Lottie Parker, the character has developed and undergone many changes; Lottie is by no means perfect, but she has grown over the series and the reader has seen her battle her personal demons as she supports her family, alongside tackling some gruesome murders and discovering the truth about her past.
And this is my first time listening to an audio version of a book in the series. The narrator, Michele Moran, does a great job in bringing the characters to life. In particular Lottie and somehow, made me feel a greater empathy with her than from merely reading the book.
Within the opening pages, Gibney manages to grab your attention and does not let your attention escape. This is no different in Her Last Walk Home, when the reader is confronted with the inner thoughts of someone, presumably our killer, who is stalking young women, and also meets several potential victims, this development serves to heighten the tension as we know one of these women will be kidnapped but just who?
The author uses a combination of storyline (some long running) to keep up a fast pace and ensure that the action does not stop.
I found that some of the light humour present in previous novels is absent here, but that fits with the increasing darkness of the storyline and also the issues faced by Lottie and her family.

Her Last Walk Homr
Her Last Walk Home is the 14th book in the Lottie Parker series and again it’s another unputdownable read. I was very lucky to have the chance to listen to this via audio as well. This was fantastic for me as it meant I could listen to the audio when I was out and about and wasn’t able to read my actual kindle. The narrator Michelle Moran was excellent and made the audio fantastic to listen to. It was wonderful to be back with Lottie and her team as they deal with the atrocities and try to find the perpetrator. This was a gripping and page turning read that had me hooked right from the prologue. I don’t think I’ll ever have enough of this series as it just keeps on getting better and better.

great characterisation
Every time I think "this is the best one" the next one out does it! so, once again, I was getting through this book at an incredible rate of knots to find out who was next, who the guilty one was and who was doing what to who and why! of course all was revealed in the final chapters. some interesting new characters intermingled with the old favourites - and not so favourites - giving a rich tapestry of twisted threads. as before, I needed to turn pages to reach the end reveal.... but felt bereft at finishing it... doubly so this time as there's no immediate "on to the next one in the series now so" - will have to wait a while for that. Great narration again.
