Something Wicked by Kerry Wilkinson review

On his eighteenth birthday, Elaine Carr’s son Nicholas disappeared in the woods near his home. He hasn’t been seen since. 

Now, nearly a year later, private investigator Andrew Hunter is on the case and convinced that Nicholas remains alive – but in grave danger. He asks the teenager’s former girlfriend for help, but she’s defensive and cagey, and hiding a curious tattoo on her wrist. 

When Andrew discovers a mysterious book in the missing boy’s bedroom, he begins to uncover the secrets Nicholas was keeping in the months leading up to his disappearance. But Andrew is forced to ask his ex-wife, Keira – the woman he still loves – to help him finally understand the book, and to discover exactly what happened to Nicholas all those months ago… 

Can Andrew find Nicholas alive, or is he already too late to save him? 

Something Wicked by Kerry Wilkinson

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Nicholas Carr disappeared on his 18th birthday. The cop searched for 9 months only to find 3 of his fingers. So his parents, Richard and Elaine, hire Andrew Hunter, investigator to find out what happened. Meanwhile Andrew is also hired by a woman to find out where her husband has been going at night.
We also get to know a little bit of Andrew's employee. She is a little weird but I like her. We also know that Andrew has an ex wife and we get to meet her and also find out what happened between them. So this book sets you up a little bit to get to know the characters for the rest of the series while also investigating. There is a lot of weirdness going on and looks like maybe some magic thrown in.
I received this from NetGalley and Bookouture for review.
