If Something Happens to Me is an engaging, vivid thriller that demands attention and dares you to put it down. Adrenaline-fueled, edge of your seat stuff by Alex Finlay.
Ryan Richardson, haunted by the disappearance of his girlfriend Ali five years ago, lives under the weight of suspicion and online harassment. Despite never being charged, he changes his name and pursues a law career to move on. However, his past resurfaces when Ali's car is discovered in a lake with two bodies and a mysterious note, reigniting his quest for answers. During a trip to Italy with classmates, Ryan receives a chilling call from his father, leading him on a journey across continents to unravel the truth behind Ali's disappearance. Along the way, he encounters unexpected allies, including a rookie sheriff's deputy in Kansas and a mobster in Philadelphia, as he races against time to uncover the secrets of that fateful night.
Multiple storylines are expertly developed in parallel, containing twists and turns to keep readers off balance, before converging in an explosion of violence. Pulsating with an intensity that thrusts readers onward with a craving for discovering the truth and witnessing the end game. Which only works because the characters are expertly crafted with depth that elicit complex emotions. So, while they are divided between groups of characters that you root to succeed versus those you harbor hope of being destroyed, most of the individuals are not straight good or bad. Allowing readers to sympathize with the “bad guys” while still wishing for their demise…and harboring dislike for some of the actions of the “good guys” but ultimately cheering for them to win the day. A well-written, fast-paced and action-filled tale that’s brilliantly crafted by one hell of a thriller author.
