MY REVIEW
I really enjoyed the author’s previous book so I was delighted when I saw that this one was being released – I had read it within hours of downloading it to my Kindle – couldn’t resist!!
I loved the plot line, but just a warning it was quite gruesome and graphic in a few places and that won’t be liked by everyone, but for me I loved it!
The characters were great and I loved their interaction and the suspense that built up, it was certainly a gripping story and I read it in an afternoon as I couldn’t wait to see how it ended!!
Five stars from me – a brilliant thriller that really had me guessing!!
