Description
The perfect gripping, twisty suspense for fans of Netflix’s You and Lisa Jewell’s Watching You
Watching sunrises together should have been romantic.
But you were always inside with your wife, and I sat in your garden, in the shadows.
I thought you’d never know how I felt about you.
Until one night, I witnessed a terrible crime.
I wanted it to bring us closer together.
But now the secrets are tumbling out.
And they could tear everything apart…
A breath-taking suspense full of twists and turns – if you think you know how this ends, think again
3.5 stars
This was my first novel by the author and found it interesting as the description and cover caught my attention.
It started at a moderate pace and I was confused as of what I was reading but powering through; it picks up and some puzzle pieces are finding their place in the big picture.
I was interested to see what truly transpired, what precisely Fran sees in the tube scene, if it was unquestionably that or, as we know, sometimes in shock cases, our mind is playing up and will show only what we want to see, like a safety blanket.
I couldn’t get close to any character, more so I just didn’t admire Fran, not even felt sorry for her, it was just something that I couldn’t get out of her, always lonely and strange behaviour, always so... strange plus the stalking obsession is not for me at all.
As a thriller, the story is compelling and an excellent one with many twists and turns that many people will appreciate, but wistfully I wasn’t sold on it.
