Book Rating
An enjoyable and easy read from an author I look forward to reading.

This was a good thriller that kept me engaged throughout. The plot was intriguing and the pace was just right but the characters weren't particularly likeable and the excitement just wasn't there for me unfortunately. The first half of the book was great but things waned a bit in the second half before increasing again towards the end.

Overall, a good easy-to-read thriller and thanks must go to Canelo and NetGalley for enabling me to read One Fatal Secret and share my thoughts.

Thrilling.
As one not usually dipping into the creepy thriller end of the book pool it gave me nightmares but I loved it anyway. You still root for the main character despite the murderous inclinations.

Not the most interesting storyline
Unwanted gift
A had high hopes for this thriller but felt disappointed at the end. The cast is ok but the storyline felt a little weak and expected a better ending.

The way the strange events unravel
Like a X-Files story
I found this an ok mystery thriller. If you liked the more odd X-Files stories you'll probably like this. It is quite slow paced though with a 2 hour run time.

Nice twists
A very good thriller with a great well established cast. Pity David Suchet didn't get a bit more screen time though. Has some good twists but nothing you don't really expect to be honest. A remake of Dial M for Murder.
