Five people in a self help group, all of them the victim of a stalker.
At the very start of the book the group loses a member when their stalker murders them on their doorstep.
At the funeral the group are delivered a chilling message. In just over a week one of them will die.
The story is told from the remaining four members of the groups point of view.
They hatch a plan to find out who’s stalker delivered the message, who is the target, but can they trust each other.
With the book being written from the point of view of the four potential victims the concerns, and insecurities soon start to manifest themselves in one of them.
As those concerns appeared on the page it led me to change my hypothesis on who was the intended target, and even start to develop thoughts on if one of them was in fact the puppet master using the others fears to manipulate them.
But why would that be. If all of them are victims of stalking why would one of them go from victim to predator.
This is a cracking story.
The pace of the book is perfectly set. It had me hooked from the beginning and kept me enthralled all the way through.
I can’t remember how many times I changed my hypothesis, up until the point it became obvious, and even then I wasn’t completely convinced there wasn’t going to be a twist.
