Thoughts

Good little thriller this one, starting off with a woman trying to escape an unhappy household and very quickly escalating into a mystery of who did what and when, and what on earth happened. It used flashbacks well, filling in the gaps of the story neatly, and when the threads came together at the end I was surprised, I hadn’t seen it coming! And the final piece at the end was a sting in the tail that I also wasn’t expected but actually seemed quite fitting. A good read, well written and I powered through it very quickly.

Rating: 4 / 5
