5,0 su 5 stelle 5 stars - A must read
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 25 aprile 2022

Omg!!! What a book!!
This book was about a subject that has always fascinated me, witness protection. I have always thought how random it is that you could be living right by someone in witness protection and you would never know.
The book was told from the POVs of several characters and every part was interwoven perfectly to create a story full of excitement and wonder.
This book had me second guessing the whole way though and constantly doubting who I could trust and changing which way I thought the story was headed.
This is certainly a book that will stay with me and one that I will definitely recommend to others.

I am giving How to Disappear by Gillian McAllister 5 stars, but I have my objections. I cannot get used to the trappings of the modernist psychological thrillers written by women, such as experiments with narrative, excessive use of expletives, not very likeable characters (such as you wouldn't want to meet in your life) etc. Fortunately, these features were rather mildly served in this instance and they did not spoil my overall impression. I have to praise the whole idea behind the plot and I did like how the familial bonds were emphasised. Overall, I enjoyed this book by an author I had not known before.

3,0 su 5 stelle Great premise but not plausible
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 28 ottobre 2020

I was really drawn to this book based on the premise. Witness protection schemes are fascinating and I wanted to know more about how it was to live in one. However, for me the book was let down by a series of key things just not being believable. I didn't believe the motivations, I didn't believe the reasons they were being pursued, I didn't believe the series of events.

Not being able to suspend disbelief meant that the middle third of the book was very slow and frustrating. There is a twist at the end but I had guessed it in advance.

I was sad to be disappointed by this book.

An interesting book that deals with the British witness protection service. Zara, age 16, is the only witness to the murder of a homeless man. She gives evidence anonymously at the trail as girl A but when the trial collapses and her identity is discovered on social media her life is put in danger. With no viable alternative she is put into witness protection with her mother and as the story unfolds there are many twists and turns along the way. It shows the humans difficulties of dealing with life when this happens so suddenly, who to trust and the consequences of being unable to accept the circumstances both for themselves and the family left behind. It also shows mobile phones and social media make it so hard to disappear these days. I found it a compelling thriller that has you enthralled to the end.

4,0 su 5 stelle Full of holes, but very enjoyable despite that
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 14 settembre 2020

I really enjoyed this and found it quite nail-biting. However, I did have to suspend disbelief to a huge degree, as you might when watching a spider-woman movie or suchlike. You have to accept that the police would, at the drop of a hat, decide you needed to be in witness protection, and just whisk you off to your new life without time to draw breath. You have to accept that people in w.p. (and their loved ones) would be so idiotically naive about their own security. And several other unlikely plot devices...
But given all that, it was a gripping tale.

Defiantly will be recommending this to my friends to read.

Sorry, but I can't see why there's so much hype about this book. After about 60% , I was thinking I'd die of boredom, but thought I'll keep going for a few more pages. When I got to 70% then I began to enjoy it. Good ending but not the best. If you don't mind a very long slow start then go for it. Personally I like a book that grips me from the first chapter & sadly this book just doesn't do that.

3,0 su 5 stelle Not A Psychological Thriller
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 14 febbraio 2021
Acquisto verificato
If you are - like I was - intrigued by the idea of a thriller set around the world of Witness Protection, then stop. Do not buy this book. It's not a psychological thriller, even to call it a crime novel is pushing that definition to its logical extreme.

This is Women's Fiction, with a crime sub-plot hooked on to it. And the plot moves from daft to ridiculous.

Which is a shame because it started out so well, and with the author with a background in law how can it miss? Well, quite spectacularly it seems. I never really bought the idea that the police would place Zara under witness protection for reasons outlined by the author. Then Aidan's whole sub-plot of going undercover just made it worse - which by the way no police officer would ever encourage.

The characters of Lauren and Zara are dire. Lauren is whiny and frequently does things which make her Too Stupid To Live (I've been to London, it's dirty, overcrowded, the only thing going for it is its museums and galleries). Zara's character isn't logical swinging dramatically between bookish daughter to a stroppy, rebellious teenager. The third act revelation was unconvincing too.

As for the big 'twist' at the end, well it really wasn't. It was cliched and made me cringe (and made me wonder if the author didn't know how to end the book).

The antagonists are pretty faceless and unscary in my opinion. The book would have worked better if perhaps the POVs of Zara and Poppy were removed and one given to Luke. Anyone who has experience of football fans (I live near Newcastle) know its a religion to people and take it VERY seriously.

I gave it three stars as it was readable enough to keep the pages turning. However, it is being lauded as a fast-paced psychological thriller, when it spends more time on the love story of Lauren and Aiden. The thriller elements are weak and don't come to a satisfying conclusion. If you're looking for a light beach read, not particularly gritty then this could be for you. If you want a crime/thriller there are better, meatier books.

One last plea, London is not the capital of the world (or even England's best city).

Best thriller I have read for quite some time. The writing is brilliant, characters fully rounded and realistic. The plot was so cleverly laid out, with breathtaking twists along the way and so atmospheric. The ending, well! Certainly did not see that coming! I am not a particularly fast reader but I consumed this over 3/4 evenings.
Absolutely loved this book, written in such a way to keep you page turning to find out what comes next.
Can’t wait to read more of Gillian’s books.

4,0 su 5 stelle Absolutely gripping plot !

I've always enjoyed Gillian McAllister's books and this was one was no exception! Lots of twists and turns that made it really enjoyable to read. I thought the premise was unique and finished the book really quickly. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because of the characters. I did eventually get into them but struggled to connect. I also didn't buy into their marriage in the beginning - I didn't feel the love between the them at all. But the plot more than made up for it - superb!
