From Nora Roberts comes the #1 New York Times bestseller Shelter in Place (June 2018)—a powerful tale of heart, heroism...and propulsive suspense. It was a typical evening at a mall outside Portland, Maine. Three teenage friends waited for the movie to start. A boy flirted with the girl selling sunglasses. Mothers and children shopped together, and the manager at the video-game store tending to customers. Then the shooters arrived. The chaos and carnage lasted only eight minutes before the killers were taken down. But for those who lived through it, the effects would last forever. In the years that followed, one would dedicate himself to a law enforcement career. Another would close herself off, trying to bury the memory of huddling in a ladies' room, hopelessly clutching her cell phone--until she finally found a way to pour her emotions into her art. But one person wasn't satisfied with the shockingly high death toll at the DownEast Mall. And as the survivors slowly heal, find shelter, and rebuild, they will discover that another conspirator is lying in wait--and this time, there might be nowhere safe to hide.

Pretty much any time I read a Nora Roberts book, I find myself impressed. The plotting is good, the pacing is good, and it's a charming book. About a mass shooting event and a serial killer. There's a lot of balls to juggle in that concept, and it's handled well.
it is not going to be your typical love story. there are no intense scenes where you can feel the intensity between the couple but rather a book that focuses on the human connection not just between a couple but rather an entire range from friendship, family, and strangers.
it focuses on how the people that have faced the adversity have come together and have grown over the next 10 years as they learn to deal with their trauma and make something out of it. it was in interesting read for me as I often felt I could not read such stories I felt that they would not trill me. I felt that I needed a romance to feel the thrill of a mystery something that could keep me in a book. through this, I realize that where there is a human connection in a book I would be able to read it
quite enjoyable but at the same time quite different from the book written before this. here books such as the witness
