Secret Smile by Nicci French: Book Review

Secret Smile
Nicci French

 

Husband and wife team, journalists Nicci Gerrard and Sean French, have produced a number of masterful psychological thrillers, of which Secret Smile is one of the best. Miranda Cotton has an affair and finishes it, and assumes that’s the end of that. But a few weeks later she discovers that Brendan is now dating her sister, and will in fact stop at nothing to be part of Miranda’s life. As events spiral out of control and what was initially an embarrassment becomes something infinitely more sinister, Miranda finds herself locked in a battle of nerves with a psychopath. A dark, brooding tale of obsession and revenge.

You’re Next by Gregg Hurwitz–Book Review

You’re Next
Gregg Hurwitz

 

If you’re a fan of Harlan Coben or Linwood Barclay, then you’re in for a treat with this latest offering from Californian-based author Gregg Hurwitz. Mike Wingate has moved on from the mystery of his early childhood and his troubled teenage years and turned his life around – or so he thinks. With a beautiful wife, an eight-year old daughter and a blossoming career, he has accomplished more than he’d ever dreamed of. But when a stranger approaches him at a party with the words ‘I know you, don’t I?’, all that he holds dear is plunged into uncertainty and danger. A gripping page-turner with a chilling premise and twists and turns galore. Make sure you clear your diary before opening You’re Next, because you’ll struggle to put it down…
