Gotcha

by Tom Lytes

On islands off the coast of South Carolina, sisters Rainey and Gretchen go their separate ways. Gretchen disappears into a drug-addled underworld headed by Garrison Buchan, a sinister figure who hides his illegal activities behind a tree farm and an alligator sanctuary. Rainey, distracted by the upcoming sale of her app "Gotcha" to an anonymous investor with dubious plans for the company, lets her go.

But when a suspicious car crash drags the sisters back together, they are on their way to exposing secrets best left hidden!

"Gotcha" is a thriller novel about deception. The fraught relationship between two sisters takes center stage as an addictive computer app runs wild in South Carolina. Soon, nobody is safe.

Gotcha
Get ready for a wild ride including all the usuals and much more: money, a drug Kingpin, crime, greed, cops, social applications based off of gossip, murder, man eating alligators, a psychic, and a bunch of lunatics! Yeah, can you believe all these things in one gigantic 600+ page story? Quite an interesting read. This is the first book I have read by this author, looking forward to more fantastic stories.

This is pretty good. I haven't read the previous book in the series, but I don't think that's necessary. This doesn't have the polish of a more experienced author, but it was well written overall, and I hope the author continues to write.

Thanks very much for the free review copy!!
