When Nathan Hamilton was accused of killing Landy Connor
just weeks before their college graduation, he lost everything—his friends, his
reputation, and the love of his life, Tenile Barnes. For ten long years, the
murder has remained unsolved, nothing but false leads and dead ends. Desperate
to bring Landy’s killer to justice and win back Tenile’s heart, Nathan starts
his own investigation. But the first break in the case comes at a high price:
Landy’s old roommate Nicole is kidnapped . . . possibly by the same person who
killed Landy.


Nathan and his old friends comb through every memory, every photograph, and
every trace of evidence for clues about who killed Landy then and who has taken
Nicole now. As they separate fact from vicious rumor and piece together what
really happened that night, they discover that the truth is darker and more
twisted than they ever imagined. The killer is close, waiting in the shadows,
ready to strike again.

In the shocking sequel to ‘Rumors’,
will the friends finally reveal Landy’s killer . . . or will Nicole be the next
to fall?

My Review:

A view months ago I read the first book in the Rumors
series for the blog tour I was participating in. I really enjoyed that book so
when I was approached with the question if I wanted to read the second book in
the Rumors series called ‘Revealed’, I agreed immediately. This week I finally
found the time to read it, and I was super curious how this book would go.
‘Rumors’ really left me with a lot of questions (not a bad thing), and I was
ready to find out more.
The first thing that comes to my mind after reading
‘Revealed’ is that A.C. Arthur has a very interesting writing style. It’s easy
to read, almost like someone is talking to you instead of that you’re reading
the pages of a book. It’s also very descriptive.
The Rumors series had multiple main characters and there
all very different. Throughout this book we read the point of views, of at
least six of those characters. Most times if an author choices to write from so
many point of views, I find myself mixing characters around and forgetting who
was exactly who.. In this series that’s not the case. I still find myself
connecting to the characters and I can easily remember which character
witnessed what.
The mystery in this book definitely keeps you hooked to
the pages. In the first book, we thought we knew who killed Landy Connor. But
at the end the suspect, Donovan, was murdered and it became clear that he
wasn’t the murderer. In this book we find a new suspect and it was interesting
to see how that developed. In the end, I really didn’t expect this book to end
the way it did. It was good but it was also a little strange since I did not
see this coming at all. It made me want to reread the first book to see if
could decipher some clues.
The one problem I had with this book were that I think
the two main male characters Nathan and Justin were just a little to.. sweet.
There love declarations just seemed a little over the top at times. And the
reactions they got from the woman.. “Tenile
dropped the flowers and pressed two palms over her mouth
”. It just sounded
a little to cliché’s to me at times. A little too much.
But overall I did enjoy this book. It was a nice and
interesting read that made me want to keep reading until I finally knew who was
the real murderer.
