Extremely disturbing - needs a trigger warning
I've never felt so moved and violently uncomfortable /ill at the same time while reading a book before. The level of graphic psychological abuse described definitely requires a trigger warning before survivors listen because unfortunately the truth is stranger than fiction, despite many readers wanting to wave away the experiences as 'absurd' on some of the Amazon reviews.

While there were some instances that were unclear especially near the end, and slightly inconclusive in the climax, which was a bit unsatisfactory - it should be listened to as a psychological cautionary tale rather than a thriller as such. To describe it as a mystery would be insulting to those who have experienced it.

Took me out of my comfort zone
As an ardent crime-fiction reader, I was surprised how much I loved this psychological thriller. I read it with a friend and we were gripped with the characters. Although it was a bit confusing at the start, after a few chapters it became a plausible read. Definitely took me away from my reading-comfort-zone. I even enjoyed the film....though that should definitely be viewed after reading the book.

I really enjoyed this book, it had me hooked from the first page till the very end. this book is full of twists and turns and you never know what's going to happen with every page you read. when you get near the end the book comes to life with all the suspense. this is a fantastic psychological thriller, that you will defiantly enjoy from start to finish.

A True Brit Gem...
From the jarring intense sound of a car smash followed by opening title I was in... A bonafide True British Gem with all the hallmarks of a true Seat of your chair Psychological Thriller begging the question "what wouldn't you do?". Tense powerful performance from leading man Matt Hookings surrounded by a top notch supporting cast, In this beautifully crafted, gorgeously shot and expertly executed independent must see movie... It's a strong Recommend from me!!!
