Mark Edwards at his best ! This book had me hooked from the beginning and I really did not want it to end. One of the best books I have read this year. Well or I could say the best as this is the first 5 stars I give.

a causa di questo libro ho "mancato" la mia fermata della metro varie volte, talmente ero presa a leggere! intrigante, pazzesco, e fino all'ultima pagina non si sa la verità di come è andata la storia. piaciutissimo e consigliatissimo, leggerò altri libri dello stesso autore (il suo inglese è leggibilissimo)

come ti trasformo un viaggio in un incubo, con demoni che ti seguono fino a casa e non ti lasciano respiro...

Chillingly compelling. Thanks for a right riveting read. It's absolutely a book to be recommended and I most certainly will do so.

A nice thriller story.

Recensito in Italia il 18 aprile 2020

I would maybe reveal earlier some information to the reader in the first half of the book. It’s nice to wait, but...
Also some ideas and descriptions of the characters become a bit repetitive along the book.
Pros: you never know exactly what happended till the very end, and also there are some nice twist of the story.

Not the best from this author. A real disappointment.

Recensito nel Regno Unito il 22 luglio 2019

A great start, then so unbelievable, a ridiculous plot. Intelligent main character does not change his locks despite his flat being broken into on several occasions. People able to travel at will with no funds and able to easily track down characters in central London. Unbelievable dialogue and characterisation. A garbled last 25% of book - I gritted my teeth to get through to the end. I bought this book because I have read several others by Mark Edwards, but this was a real disappointment.

Fabulous read best crime mistery I have read.

Recensito nel Regno Unito il 2 ottobre 2017

Wow where do I start this book is a fabulous read if you like crime mistery novels. You think i've worked out the plot then there are so many twists and turns it just leads to an intriguing read that you can't put down. I like the way the story unfolded coming back to the present then unravelling what actually happened in the past. I didn't expect it to end how it did clever twist. If it were to be made into a movie it would be a block buster albeit a little gory in places. Ive read a few crime mistery novels lately and I think this one is unique so well described.

A book that reminds me of the reason I love to read.........brilliant

Recensito nel Regno Unito il 8 marzo 2018

I am an avid reader and have been from an early age, I picked this book up after a recommendation and I loved it. Some of the reviews here slated it but I love a book that motors on with twists and turns, one that is fast paced and not padded out. This novel had all this and more, books don't have to be politically correct, I love fiction after all I started on The Famous Five and no kids would ever have been allowed to do what they did. This novel was fantastic from the outset, some books take time to get into, not this one. Daniel and Laura board a night train, there they meet another couple, what happens that night has far reaching consequences and is something neither wants to talk about. When they return home they soon realise the nightmare is not over. The book gives and gives bit by bit to a gripping climax and a further twist right at the end. Four and a half stars from me, a brilliant read and an author I will read more of. Books need not be true to life, fiction is just what it says it is and this experienced reminded me why I love reading so much.

I had to make myself finish it... (NO SPOILERS)

Recensito nel Regno Unito il 10 settembre 2018

OK, so I normally read non fiction, books on war etc being a 37 old male, I love a good horror though too.
So after reading the reviews I decided to give this a go.
The start was interesting and indeed had you quite hooked, but when they returned home, things became frustrating and annoying tbh, especially their. relationship and the way they couldn't seem to communicate with themselves or others.
For that it became a bit of a chore to read the rest.
Was the story good, yes!
Was it scary? Not remotely.....
I'm not going to write what frustrated me about this book, but it did make me annoyed to a degree that I had to make myself finish it!
I think the book started REALLY well and it was intriguing and mysterious.
I also found the flipping between points in time and chapters a bit frustrating, of course some people love that, but it's not for me!
It hasn't put me off the author though and after reading 2 stories on Afghanistan I am now reading "because she loves me" by the same author! Fingers crossed! :-)

The Artist

Horrid Book

Recensito nel Regno Unito il 24 ottobre 2020

A while ago, I discovered Mark Edwards having read 'Here to Say' which I thoroughly enjoyed. I bought this book ( my fourth by the author) and expected another good psychological thriller. I have to say that it was so unexpectedly horrid that I have actually burnt it in the garden, I certainly wouldn't give it to a friend or even to a charity shop! Be warned, this is NOT one for the faint hearted. It has also put me off reading anything else by him which is a shame.
