My first book by Sandra Block and now I have another author to seek out and read. It sure is a good day to be a thriller reader!
“Have a nice bachelorette party. I hope you fucking die.”
Short chapters and dual times have the pages flipping at a breakneck pace. I have never wanted to skip the past and read only the NOW chapters or just skip the end so badly in my entire life. I mean the discipline that it took to stay the course - I think I need ice cream for a reward!
The first timeline is now, Alex and her two best friends Lainey and Melody are heading out to celebrate Alex’s upcoming wedding. I can honestly say that the now chapters blurred a little into horror and Groundhog Day and that is totally a good thing. The second timeline is following Alex, who works for Crimeline (she is a budding journalist who is also a true crime junkie). Alex has chosen to try and ‘debunk’ the 666 serial killer case. With plenty of leads, clues to follow, notes to read and podcasts to listen to, our author is able to set a stage little by little making the intensity level which a panicked high. (again totally a good thing)
This crime thriller is nothing short of a knockout. I was hanging on to every word. The further that Alex pushes through her research and the days to her wedding grow closer, the more often death knocks at her door! This is a must read.
