Summary

Rachel’s childhood is a mess of fragmented memories, and her adult life is no less chaotic.

Her mother and daughter are her only concrete links to the past and now they are slipping through her fingers. Fuelled by the fear of losing them both, she delves into her mother’s past, fast becoming entangled in her own tragic history.

With eerie friend requests filling Rachel’s phone and shocking flashbacks filling her mind, she heads to County Sligo to discover her past – but is there a killer closer than she thinks?

From the bestselling author of HER LAST LIE comes a chilling thriller you won’t want to miss! It will have you questioning your own relationships and doubting if everyone in your life is who they say they are.

Perfect for fans of The Girl on the Train and He Said / She Said.

"I was drawn in right from the rather original prologue and did not see that twist coming!" (Diane Jeffrey, author of Those Who Lie)

Thoroughly good!

The writer allows the reader to empathise with many of the characters. Who is telling the story? Who is to be believed? Right to the end, you're left wondering... Who is telling the truth?

What’s not to like?

Great story, great narration and kept me guessing till the end. Main character engaging and totally believable. I thoroughly recommend.

Mixed

I found it an interesting, if somewhat unlikely story.

It was clever and kept me wanting to read on, but a tale that rather pushed the bounds of reality to the edge. However, it was well conceived and the continuity was excellent. It offered many options as to who 'dunnit', and why. The psychological implications were excellent.

What did agitate me was that in the moments of the story where fear should have shaken the reader, it sort of didn't. An air of predictability surrounded those sections. (I am prepared to accept that, as a reader of many thrillers, it may just be that I am conditioned to them so I might be losing the impact).

The most annoying part of the tale was the depiction of the lead character who acts and thinks rather stupidly a lot of the time. Sadly, this is seemingly a common trait with modern thrillers .

Here is a woman who is a trained psychotherapist yet ploughs through the story reacting in the most ridiculous ways. I found myself shouting at her (how sad) when she did, or reacted to things no normal human being would if faced with the evidence that she was. Or putting herself in situations that only a simpleton would.
In her voyage of detection and discovery she failed to ask obvious questions and ignored the answers to the good ones. Likewise her appalling level of assessing the characters in her life, if she were real, would certainly prevent me from using her services.

The narration was excellent and, overall, have given 4-stars as it's worth the read.

Run of the Mill Thriller

This book would have been more believable if the main character had not been a psychotherapist, her response to situations was silly a trained therapist would not have behaved that way. This spoilt it for me so I struggled to really engage in the story. Writing this review I am struggling to remember the plot and characters thats how much it stood out in my mind.
