I just wanted to make him a welcome home video. I didn’t plan to document a search.
To celebrate Randy’s long-awaited return home, our group of childhood friends surprised him with a trip into the woods to dig up our buried time capsule. But our nostalgic reunion took a dark turn when Randy disappeared under our watch.
Now I’m starting to fear we’re the only people really looking for him. We have no choice but to rely on unconventional leads: his digital footprint, a series of cryptic text messages, and the videos I’ve been taking. Even more troubling, there seem to be sinister motives behind his disappearance—because the closer we get to finding our old friend, the closer we get to the same danger that took him.
And the more our eyes turn toward each other.
If you enjoy the found footage genre, or you simply cannot put down books packed with suspense and a bone-chilling ending, then you will love Finding Randy.
This book did not only entertain me, but it also kept me on edge the entire time.
- Randy is missing. His last words to his friends were a simple, haunting "I’m okay." The situation turns dark when they hear screaming in the woods and discover a severed finger while searching for him. To make things worse, Randy’s mother doesn’t seem to care what happened to him. It makes the whole situation feel a lot more sinister. The mystery just keeps getting deeper.
🟢 To be honest, I am the type of person who has a hard time reading a story with a lot of characters, but Trevor’s writing style is surprisingly easy to follow. I could clearly picture what was happening in every scene. Even the small details in each moment were absolutely bone-chilling.
🖤 If you get confused about the story, just stick with it and read until the end where everything finally clicks. I’m sure you will be just as shocked as I was by the ending of this book.
🖤 Also, I got chills when I watched the video for Finding Randy on Amazon. At first, I didn't know what to think. Is this even real? Is the real Randy actually missing? When I finally saw the Creators and Cast section... I said, "Oh, it’s a film-style promotion." Thank goodness! It was so realistic that it actually scared me. 💔
