I am a huge fan of Jane Corry's books and this one is no different. This book follows what follows after Danielle tells her sister, Susie to meet her at a cafe because Danielle's husband has been trying to kill her.

This book was thrilling, suspenseful, shocking. The characters were likable and the plotline was so intriguing.

Recommend to all

Excellent book,would definitely recommend to all my friends and family, Throughout the story l was waiting to find out what happens next!!!!

I would like to thank Penguin Books UK and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read ‘The Killing Type’, a short story written by Jane Corry, in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.
This is a short but enjoyable novel of two sisters, Danielle and Susie, who’ve never been very close. When Danielle messages Susie asking to meet up, she tells her that her husband Simon is trying to kill her by staging accidents. Susie can’t believe it as Simon has always appeared to be a loving husband. Can Danielle be believed?
‘The Killing Type’ is just a taster of what Jane Corry is capable of writing. It has an interesting plot with lots of twists and if it was fleshed out a bit could make a great thriller. Nevertheless, it’s enough to make me want to read more of her novels.

Great little story but that's just it- it was "little". Would have been a great book lots to build on. I did however really enjoy it.
Thank you to Netgalley for the ARC

Quick read. It’s almist like a summary to a longer novel. I can imagine a full book on this plot line. Enjoyed reading it.

A great little story! I would have loved it if this would have been a full novel! It has enjoyable twists and everyone loves a story about revenge!

This story might be short but it packs a punch. The twists (yes there is more than one!) left me shocked and surprised though out! A brilliant little revenge story. I'm eagerly awaiting the release of Correy's full-length novel after readings the teaser included at the end.

Thanks to Netgalley and Penguin for this ARC in exchange for an open and honest review.

5* for this brilliant short story The Killing Type by Jane Corry.

"Susie and her sister have never been close, so when Danielle messages her out of the blue and begs to meet, Susie knows something must be wrong. But what Danielle tells her seems crazy. Her husband, Simon, may be a bully, but surely he wouldn't hurt her? Then the accident happens. And Susie is forced to rethink everything.

Who is lying? Who is telling the truth? And who, really, is the killing type?"

I found this intriguing as soon as I read the synopsis and was sure I would be able to work it out before the end, however, I was wrong and thoroughly enjoyed the suspense from page 1 to page 50. As usual with Jane Corry it is brilliantly written and draws you in and I read it in one sitting. My only criticism is that it ended!

I can't wait to read more from this Author.

The killing type by Jane Corry is a short story about two sisters. I found this story very rushed with long gaps in the storyline. I didn't engage with the characters at all.

The Killing Type by Jane Corry

This was an excellent super short story that grabbed my attention from the first sentence and never let me go. My complaint is it was way too short. I wanted more. There is snappy dialogue between two sisters. Danielle and Susie are known to their mother as Danielle being like Rose Red and Susie being like Snow White. This was so interesting and fast paced that I believe this is the shortest story that I have ever read.

Two sisters who scheme and do the unthinkable. There is about 14 month's age difference between them. Susie is the quiet one always writing who is a journalist. Danielle has a passion for acting. The setting is in England. They both end up marrying Simon. This was so well told but again it was way too short.

We don't get a chance to see any character development of Simon. There was a sneak peek at the end of this outstanding short story of Jane Corry's next thriller called "The Dead Ex." I suspect that this small teaser was a prelude to her next book, but I think I am wrong. I am off to read that prelude now.

Thank you to Net Galley, Jane Corry and Penguin Books for my ARC in exchange for a fair and honest review. It was my pleasure!

With thanks to Netgalley and Penguin for this ARC in exchange for an open and honest review.

Despite the 14 month age difference Danielle and older sister Suzie never got along as kids, they were as different as chalk and cheese. As adults Suzie was a journalist hoping to get into the nationals some day. Danielle was an actress until she stopped work after marrying wealthy banker Simon King

One day Danielle sent a text to Suzie asking to meet. Four weeks later Danielle had a car crash and told the police Simon had tampered with the brakes. The police went to visit Suzie who confirmed Danielle had claimed Simon was trying to kill her when they met last. Suzie told the police Danielle could be melodramatic and Simon was not the killing type. Danielle overheard this and accused Suzie of fancying her husband, later Suzie got a text to say Simon had thrown her out of the house.

Four months later Danielle is shocked to discover Suzie and Simon are to marry. The story moves on six months and Suzie is in court of murdering Simon in self defence.

The story was told from the alternate POV of Danielle and Suzie. The chapters were short and snappy but got the point of the story across. I enjoyed the twist in the tale which surprised me. I enjoyed reading The Killing Type, for a short story it an interesting plot with a satisfying ending.

This was such a twist turning short story. I loved it. I felt the characters and then bam. Deliciously evil in every way.

Thank you to netgalley and the publishers for this arc in exchange for my honest review.

This is a short story about Danielle and susie, sisters who are entangled in a dangerous situation. I really enjoyed this little read with a cuppa before work and would recommend to anyone wanting a quick tale of revenge!
