What a psychological horror show!
I haven’t felt physically frightened reading a book as much as I did this one.
I recommend this fraught spine tingling thriller to anyone with a strong heart who loves to be scared shitless.

A deadly game like no other with a plot that will have you shouting at you Kindle/book in disbelief.
I’ve read many crime and psychological thriller novels and am rarely shocked, but this author managed to do it twice in one book - with the plot itself and the final twist.

A brilliant and dark psychological thriller that hooked me right off the bat.

BIO

Thank you for taking the time to visit my page. I really hope you enjoy having a look around!
I've always been creative and loved writing. For over 20 years I fronted my own band singing, playing guitar and the tin whistle as well as writing my own songs.
I gave this up when my kids came along - far too exhausting - but more recently I decided to dive back into my passion for writing and love of all things scary to pen my first novel.
I self published my first thriller, The House On Rectory Lane in 2018 and received great reviews on Goodreads and Amazon.
To my great delight, it was shortlisted for Thriller of the Year 2018 on the Facebook group, "The Fiction Cafe" ending up in second place as voted by the members.
I’m 45 years old, have been happily married to my gorgeous wife (she'll read this y'know:) for 20 years and have two gloriously challenging teenage children. I also love reading, keeping fit and I am a keen amateur magician.
