A teenage girl is found wandering the outskirts of Oxford, dazed and distressed. The story she tells is terrifying. Grabbed off the street, a plastic bag pulled over her face, then driven to an isolated location where she was subjected to what sounds like an assault. Yet she refuses to press charges.
DI Fawley investigates, but there's little he can do without the girl's co-operation. Is she hiding something, and if so, what? And why does Fawley keep getting the feeling he's seen a case like this before?
And then another girl disappears, and Adam no longer has a choice: he has to face up to his past. Because unless he does, this victim may not be coming back . . .

All the Rage is the fourth book in the DI Adam Fawley series by Cara Hunter. I love these books and I’m always so excited when I learn that Hunter has a new one coming out, they are such a refreshing breath of fresh air within this crowded genre.
DI Adam Fawley is still trying to move on from the tragic death of his son Jake and he and his wife Alex are expecting a baby so he should be looking forward to the future. However when a young girl is abducted and viscously attacked, a bag put over her head and her hair pulled out, it sends Fawley looking back at the past. He provided evidence that saw a perpetrator put away for a long time for a series of crimes early on in his career. When another girl goes missing, Fawley must question whether he got the right person all of these years ago or have they still been out there all this time.
Cara Hunter writes at a terrific pace, you can’t help but be completely engrossed by the story she is telling. All the Rage is so relevant for the time we live in, she addresses several different issues, sexuality, bullying, sexism, social media and much more. The narrative is interspersed with interview transcripts, newspaper reports, twitter feeds, voicemail messages and internet forums. This is what really makes Hunter stand out, these details greatly add to the story as they are so realistic. Nowadays if there is a publicised murder investigation occurring then it is not merely reported on the 10 o’clock news. Instead information is made available 24 hours a day, people will discuss it on Twitter, facebook groups will be set up and a lot of false information will appear as well as snippets of truth. Hunter goes a long way to show how this can hamper police investigations as well as help them. They have less control of what the public know so they are constantly battling to stay one step ahead.
Hunter has some cracking twists in this one, I was very impressed with how she linked it all together and I did not see the final twist coming. All the Rage is a real treat and I would highly recommend it as well as the rest of this fabulous series.
