This was a fun read. Ask for Andrea was written from three women's POV: Brecia, Meghan and Skye. Their POVs after they're dead. Murdered.
Yes, they're ghosts, and they're coming after James Carson, the serial killer who ended their lives. They're not your typical menacing, vengeful ghosts though.
After Brecia was murdered, she haunted James with the intention to prevent him from killing other women. She was sometimes successful, sometimes not.
When she failed to help Meghan, she stopped following James out on his killing sprees. Instead, she stayed home with James' wife, April, and his two young daughters.
Until one day when Skye, who was haunting her mother, followed the police to James' house and met Brecia. Then, they met Meghan, who had stayed by her remains, desperately wanting someone to find her. And that's when they joined forces to help the police catch James.
Unlike other horror genre, this book didn't attempt to frighten its readers. Instead, it devoted much of its time to fleshing out the three main characters. It had suspense interspersed with some heart-wrenching moments and comical relief.
I read that there is a short sequel to it, titled The River, to be published in January 2024 (should have been published now - it's already 3rd February 2024). If I could find it, I'll give it a read to see if it's as good as its prequel.
