Dark & twisted a thrilling read. Found it fast paced & left me wanting more flew through it would recommend it to anyone.

It's been twenty years since Tess Piper's twin sister Edie disappeared on her way home from school. Tess has always believed that her beloved sister was still alive and living a glamorous life in some big city somewhere. She steadfastly refused to believe that Edie was dead.

But Edie's body has recently been found in a reservoir and the police are reopening their investigation. As the police shine a spotlight on the Piper family and everyone else who was in Edie's life at the time she disappeared, secrets and lies begin to surface.

After all,it's common knowledge that more often than not,these crimes are committed by someone close to the victim. Someone they trust, someone they know.

What really happened to Edie Piper?

The chapters of this story flip back and forth between Tess (in the present day) and Edie (in the past) One of the characters in this book refers to Tess as "the creepy twin" an observation that is particularly true when you read about Tess's behaviour towards her sister when they were teenagers. I felt a lot of empathy for poor Edie who was just trying to be an individual in her own right and live the life of a typical teenager. All the vivid characters in Tess and Edie's lives had flaws and I wouldn't say any of them, in either timeline were very likeable. Many of them were not who they appeared to be,had hidden secrets and were untrustworthy but who killed Edie and why?

Someone You Know is a enthralling,twist packed,gripping thriller that keeps the reader guessing throughout. I changed my mind a number of times about who I thought killed Edie and was genuinely surprised when the truth was revealed. I had a lump in my throat when I read the final,heart string pulling page. This is a skilfully plotted,well written,debut thriller that deserves far more than five stars and is definitely one of my favourite books of this year. I loved this book and look forward to reading more by this author in the future.

Someone you know is incredible! I loved the story and Edie and Tess. Through out the book we learn about the typical teen rebellion that all teenagers go through, but this time their is a twin and while one is rebellious, one is shy and still enjoying her childhood. The twists and turns this book puts you through has you guessing everyone ! You don’t know the real killer until the very end and it’s the least suspecting person! I was shocked and loved every second of it ! Now looking back I see the clues but never pieced them together until it was too late... hmm sound fimilar ? A must read for any fan of mystery murder and twists that you don’t see until the very end !

A great tense read! Full of gripping moments and twists and turns.
The story was exciting to read and the characters were fleshed out well.

You can trust your family, can’t you…?
Tess Piper was fourteen when her adored twin sister Edie disappeared. She has spent the last twenty years building a life away from her fractured family, desperate to escape the shadow of the past.

Only now she needs to confront the huge hole her sister’s disappearance left in her life, because a body has been found. The police are shining a spotlight on the Piper family. And secrets are about to surface. After all, it’s common knowledge that more often than not, these crimes are committed by someone close to the victim. Someone they trust. Someone they know…

A bit of a slower book for me but did have a few good twisty surprises that I didn't see coming. The ending was the best part, it really wrapped the story up nicely. I think this is a good book that is worth the read!

A teenager is killed and 20 years later her body surfaces. Who killed her? It must be someone she knows? Fairly intricate but not as suspenseful as one would hope. The ending was the best part - who saw that coming?

I found this book a bit slow going in parts although its hard to put my finger on why exactly this was the case. I enjoyed the past/present elements to the story and how they unfolded. I also enjoyed reading about the relationships between the different characters and how these unfolded as the story went on. The ending was good, although not totally unexpected but the way it came out and what we were initially led to believe was good.

Took me a while to get to grips with this storyline, I liked it in parts, didn't like it in others and it was never a page turner for me nor did it grip me and I couldn't get on with the character.

Based on this I don't think I will read more from this author.

Good book, really enjoyed it. Will recommend this book to others. And will read it more than one 5******

This is an intense, creepy and pacey thriller.
It's a slow burner, but this adds to the intense mood and it soon grows on you and you would want to keep reading to peal the layers of the mystery.

Thanks for the author, the publisher, and Netgalley for an ARC copy.

I received an advance reader's copy in exchange for an honest review.

This book had too many subplots going at once, and none of them really builds up to any suspense. I finished due to obligation and not out of any real desire to figure out who done it. It has a lot of likable elements : Mean Girls; 90s adolescents; creepy twin-but none of it really adds up too much in the way of any real thrills

Tess has never really gotten over the loss of her twin sister Edie. At age 14, Edie simply disappeared. Twenty years on, a body has been found and police are eager to question Tess and her family. Is it possible that someone close to Edie, someone the girl trusted, was her killer? This story peels back in layers to reveal the truth about what really happened to Edie. A gripping story that has a couple of surprises

A slow burner of a story that’s gradually builds up offering snippets of information about just what happened to Edie.Told in two different timelines and alternating between Tess and Edie's point's of view the family secrets and lies unravel more and more leading to a very twisted ending making the book a real page turner. It’s brilliantly written and has a well thought out plot, the characters are portrayed exceptionally making it a very engaging and compelling read. So if you want a good read then you have it here and I can well recommend it.
My thanks to NetGalley and Avon Books Uk for the chance to read the ARC in exchange for my honest opinion.

Someone You Know by author Olivia Isaac-Henry. This novel is shocking, intense and thrilling. Fast paced and great ending. The characters are well structured and the plot is thick. Great read!
