Don’t miss the new read-in-one-sitting Lisa Jewell novel; a cautionary story that could happen to YOU…“

My Review

I absolutely loved this latest thriller from Lisa Jewell, one of my favourite authors.

This was one of my most highly anticipated books of the year, but I I was a little disappointed in the beginning, as it felt a bit too cliched. However, about halfway through everything changed, and it all got so intense that I couldn’t stop reading! The man in this book is so vile that I really hated him and wanted bad things to happen to him!

This is definitely one of those books that you need to go in blind, and especially don’t look up place names as I came across an almost spoiler.

I’m not saying any more, as I’ll spoil it for you, except that I loved it, and I can’t wait for her next book! Oh and you definitely read the acknowledgements at the end of the book!

Highly recommended if you enjoy domestic thrillers!
