The Watcher
More than once, she felt someone watching her. But what woman hasn’t? Since her husband’s death, Maggie Becker has tried to make her daughter Emily’s life as normal as possible. Finally, with her daughter grown and heading off to college, Maggie can focus on healing and living again. But first, she makes one last gift, a photo book for her daughter. What she finds in the pictures makes the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end.
A stranger lurks in too many photos to be a coincidence. In fact, he’s been a constant, unknown presence since the death of her husband. Trusting her intuition, she hires a private investigator. Maggie turns from a mother excited to watch her daughter launch into adulthood, to a race to save her family from harm. Afraid to include the authorities for fear the watcher will murder her daughter, she must do it herself. Because the killer is always near. Maggie has the photos to prove it. Emily would be dead before her mother finished the phone call.
The more Maggie digs, the more secrets she finds. What her husband kept from her may kill them all.

This is a brilliant read.
Wonderful well written plot and story line that had me engaged from the start.
Love the well fleshed out characters and found them believable.
Great suspense and found myself second guessing every thought I had continuously.
Can't wait to read what the author brings out next.
Recommend reading.

Ava Page did an exceptional job on her second novel. I was sucked into The Watcher from the beginning. I ran through several theories during my reading, trying to solve the mystery, but I never did. Buckle your seat belt because you’re going to need it for all of the twists at the end of the book. Grab your favorite beverage, find a comfy spot to read, and settle in because you’re not going to want to do anything else until you’ve finished the book. I very much look forward to the next novel from Ms. Page.

This is a gripping, intense novel that leads the reader don a path of intrigue, horror and mystery. It seems that her father has kept a deep dark secret from her. and now her life may be in danger. This is my first opportunity to read a novel from this author and I must say I was hooked from the very first page. I did not read the first novel and I really regret that as Ava Page's work is incredible. I received this novel as an advanced reader copy from StoryOrigin.

Absolutely loved this book. Ava Page puts you right in the story and you feel every emotion. I also read Vivien's diary and omg! I previously got a free copy of One Last Call and now I can't wait to read it. Ava Page is one more author I'll be keeping an eye on for more. I received an advanced reader copy in exchange for my honest review. Definitely recommend this one!

“The Watcher” is a gripping story from beginning to end! It starts with a mystery, takes you on a journey of character development, and leaves you feeling like, “WOW, what a ride!”

Such a good book. Thought I had it figured out two or three times and I was so wrong. Definitely kept me on my toes.

Ava Page's stories are stirring, sometimes frighteningly real. The Watcher makes you look over your shoulder and question what is real and what is not.
