Lots of twists, interesting plot, claustrophobic
Mark Edwards' crime thriller is interesting because there is a massive psychological element to it. At times it is claustrophobic, especially as the protagonist continues to believe her assistant is plotting to overthrow her. While it does become slightly over the top, it's still gripping and engaging.

Movie Rating Watch
I was late to the table having only recently watched this gripping and monstrous psychological thriller, Jodie Foster as the FBI agent in training needing Hannibal Lecter's insight into a case, Hopkins plays the manipulative cannibal with aplomb and you fear for Clarice at every turn. Top quality scares in this one.

Slow and a little tedious
Contains spoilers, click to show
This psychological thriller began with tinges of a David Lynch film, and finished with an inconclusive, fluffy conclusion. The lack of connected thoughts and plot made it difficult to concentrate - it makes some sense as it is supposed to be a reflection of the protagonist's mental state - however it was not well executed.

It's starting to get a little predictable with the abusive spouse story - this kind of storyline definitely needs a revamp. The performance was fine but the thriller was a little too drab.

Nice and easy read!
Nice, easy psychological thriller. I ended up guessing who the "masked man" was pretty early in the book but I enjoyed following Emma's journey in trying to remember the events of that fateful night.
4 out of 5 ?

The darkest side of human behaviour
This psychological thriller is surprisingly gut wrenching, and because of the lack of blurb, it leaves you wondering what to expect. This however, is the best part, as it leaves you squeaming through half of the book.

A famous novelist Bo Luxton takes an aspiring writer, Alice, under her wing, creating a relationship that spirals into a dangerous love affair. The author Sarah Stovell has masterfully constructed the book so that we get both points of view, and it leaves you guessing who is in the right and who is in the wrong. In between, is a narrative of someone who has ended up in prison - but who is it?

Well-written, extremely grim, an all round good psychological thriller.
