My Review of this Fast-Paced, Contemporary Thriller




This novel is set in a quiet, peaceful (if a little corrupt!) town which the authors juxtapose nicely with the violence of unfolding events. The narrative demands you reflect on the question, ‘How can people like this exist in an inconspicuous, ordinary township?’ The answer comes back, of course, that these people hide their extraordinary evil behind a mask of normality. They may be weird, oddball loners or they may be pillars of respectability – but they’re normal. Worse still, once you start looking, they can be anywhere.
The novel contains all you would hope for in a book of its genre, a good story told with compelling pace, full of drama, suspense, nicely sketched characters and a good central character. If you’re looking for deep character development and psychological insights this is probably not for you, but for anyone wanting an adrenalin rush of a novel with very contemporary concerns, this is well worth a read.
