When Zoe Walker sees her photo in the classifieds section of a London newspaper, she is determined to find out why it's there. There's no explanation: just a grainy image, a website address and a phone number. She takes it home to her family, who are convinced it's just someone who looks like Zoe. But the next day the advert shows a photo of a different woman, and another the day after that…..
Another score from the charity shop, oh they are so good to me. I was lucky enough or unlucky enough if you like to be ill during a week off. So on that day when it was at its height of making me ill. I sat on the sofa and did not leave again until this book was finished.
As you may know I am trying different books from what I would normally read and I am so glad that I am. This book was everything.
Clare’s style of writing had me hooked just as much as the multi-layer story telling. The different perspectives told in the book was fantastic and I got a real sense of different Characters. They had enough about them to bring them to life and have you rooting for them. Their backstories where weaved in so well with the story nothing felt like exposition.
The real crowing gem of this book is the story. It is so chilling and so close to home for a lot of us and just when you think you have gotten your head around it, Clare goes and ups the ante on you! I found myself holding my breath at times. This is no doubt the reason I had to finish it in one sitting. I had to know.
The ending? Oh it pays off. This is not a story that is going to let you down at the end, the climax was so full of tension and played out beautifully.
Now I must track down her other books!
100% I would recommend.
