MY REVIEW
I have read a few books by this author and after reading the blurb for this one I was completely intrigued and wanted to know more!
The book is very well crafted and I read it over two days. I will admit that it took a little while for me to get in to the story and I didn’t really have an idea at the outset of where the story was going and I felt almost a little muddled reading it, but after reading rave reviews from others I was never going to give up on a book reported to be so good and I was delighted that it soon clicked for me and then I was off devouring the words written.
Whilst I guessed part of the story, I still took a big intake of air part way through when things started to reveal themselves! The characters were well developed and whilst I wasn’t a particular fan of any of them, they worked very well together.
4.5 stars from me rounded up to 5 stars for Goodreads and Amazon – a different psychological thriller – very highly recommended and another cracking book from this author!!
