Game Of Chance

Your Closest Friend by Karen Perry is a totally absorbing contemporary psychological murder thriller. It will have you questioning from the start… what is real? What is imagined? Who is the menacing figure?

Suspicion lurks around every corner. Being caught up in a terror attack in London soon turns into a terror attack of a very different nature.

Be careful who you share your secrets with. Guard your mouth or you may find the darkest part of your mind becomes activated.

The novel walks a fine line between mental illness and pure evil. Actions are always motivated by something.

Side by side with menace sits family life. Daughters are loved and protected. Who can possibly predict the outcome?

Karen Perry is a marvellous author who draws the reader in with her words. Cosy suburbia soon transforms into horrors from hell. It is all subtly done as comfortable middle class life metamorphosed into a psychological terror. I read on with heart in my mouth towards the nail biting conclusion.

A thrilling, gripping read to be read with the light on.

As this is a mass market psychological thriller, there are some scenes and language some readers may not like.

I received this book for free. A favourable review was not required and all views expressed are my own.
