I See You by Clare MackintoshMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Wow! This is a 4.5 for sure. I went back and forth between 4 and 5...I may change it as the story has been on my mind now for two weeks.
This is masterly crafted in terms of detail and story and suspense! Until the end, I would have guessed the "bad guy" was one of two characters and another two maybes. It turned out to be one I never saw coming.
This is the first I've read of Clare Mackintosh and I am anticipating many more.
The action was not fast-paced, but creepy nonetheless. Zoe Walker is a mom, a wife, she works in a real estate office and her life is not begging for any extra excitement. She does not deserve what happens and that is clear from the first personal advert placed. Enough said...I don't want to include spoilers.
I was looking forward - in a dark way - to turning each page. I just knew it wasn't going to get any less-creepy until solved!
