Waiting on Wednesday - The Next One to Fall


This event is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine and features books that we are eagerly anticipating. My choice for this week is:


Publisher: Forge Books
Available on February 14th
2nd in the Lily Moore series

      Hilary Davidson’s The Next One to Fall takes place three months after the events of her debut novel, the Anthony Award–winning The Damage Done.
     Travel writer Lily Moore has been persuaded by her closest friend, photographer Jesse Robb, to visit Peru with him. Jesse is convinced that the trip will lure Lily out of her dark mood, but Lily is haunted by betrayal and loss. At Machu Picchu, the famous Lost City of the Incas, they discover a woman clinging to life at the bottom of an ancient stone staircase. Just before the woman dies, she tells Lily the name of the man who pushed her.
     When the local police investigate, the forensic evidence they find doesn’t match what Lily knows. Unable to accept the official ruling of accidental death, Lily hunts down the wealthy man who was the dead woman’s traveling companion and discovers a pattern of dead and missing women in his wake.
     Obsessed with getting justice for these women, Lily sets in motion a violent chain of events that will have devastating consequences.

Hilary Davidson is a former travel writer who won an Anthony Award last year for her first crime novel, The Damage Done.  I am very interested in reading both of these books and have had a copy of the first since last year.  Sigh.  I'll get to it soon.  The location of the second in Peru at Machu Picchu is very appealing.  Can't wait to see all about Lily Moore.  This series has been recommended highly.
