    Psychological Thriller

    The Liar’s Daughter by Rona Halsall | Book Review

    April 14, 2021 /

    Well holy moly was this a ride and a half.  The Liar’s Daughter was as I expected, swift and nerve splitting.  Rona Halsall’s novels always get my heart racing, and her new release undoubtedly would be no different.  A prologue that had me sweating bullets and asking questions without coming up for air.  Paramedics arrive at a remote farm in North Wales, the women they attend to has had a severe knock to the head and is only just conscious.  Its an injury that they doubt she has done to herself but she’s insistent.  The only thing is, why can they hear someone else in the house? The title and…

    The Dinner Guest by B.P. Walter | Book Review

    April 7, 2021 /

    The Dinner Guest was one novel that I gobbled up, in one serving!  Just when you think you’ve read all there is in the thriller genre along comes this beauty and smacks you upside the head.  The perfect couple trope on drugs.  Uniqueness.  An impending threat.  Twists by the bucketload.  If you think you have this one figured out be prepared for a grenade to literally blow your face to shreds.  Walter lies in wait for the perfect moment then hits you straight between the eyes for a killer blow.  Set in the super rich areas of London.  It sets the scene.  Things are about to be rocked to its…

    All The Little Things by Sarah Lawton | Blog Tour Review

    March 26, 2021 /

    All The Little Things is just my kind of read…messed up, screwed up and slowly, slowly injecting the creeping dread into my brain until it develops into an itch I just can’t reach.  When you have read as much crime fiction as I have over the last few years it really takes something to kick you on the arse, to make you pay attention.  All The Little Things did just that.  It had the added element, a calling card left in a deserted room.  It left clues for me to discover, to strip layer after layer until I had been exposed to its dark secrets.  The writing style, the narrative,…

    The Wife by Shalini Boland | Book Review

    March 12, 2021 /

    The Wife was typical of the genre.  It was set up with an ambiguous event that would implicate the characters and future events.  We were given loaded dialogue, a perfect husband and family but something missing, there’s always something missing.  The prologue sets the tone; apparently everyone knows that the events don’t add up, but the protagonist, Zoe, is just living in blissful ignorance.  I didn’t enjoy this one as much as the last Shalini novel I read, but that’s not to say this isn’t a good book, I did want to race through the chapters but, the believability was niggling in the back of my mind.  The Wife examines…

    If She Dies by Erik Therme | Blog Tour Review

    March 8, 2021 /

    This is the second book that I have read by Erik Therme.  Just like Roam, If She Dies has that dark undertone constantly running through it.  Imagine walking through the woods in the pitch darkness, you have not seen anyone, but you have the sinking suspicion that someone is out there watching you.  Within reading a few pages, I had many questions.  In fact, I had questions on top of questions which then spawned more questions.  All because Therme introduced us to Tess.  Any mother can get into the same headspace that Tess is in; just how do you move on from the death of a child? If She Dies…

    The Resident by David Jackson | Review

    December 9, 2020 /

    When I first requested an advanced readers copy of The Resident, I was very excited!  There has been so much hype on book-twitter and a lot of blogger friends loved it.  I am very weary of getting involved in hyped books because I really don’t want to be disappointed.  I expected a strong psychological thriller but boy…this beast packed a spine shattering punch!  Imagine my delight when from chapter one onwards – I knew this was going to be the kind of dark and depraved that I live for in a crime novel.  The title and that mind-blowing cover set my imagination crazy.  Imagine a serial killer actually living in…
