Wow! This fast-paced, heart-pounding thriller had me flipping pages until the wee hours of the morning. The main character was definitely flawed, but I like characters that are not one dimensional. This book kept me up until I could get to the thrilling conclusion.
This book was a phenomenal thriller! I was anxious to turn the pages to see what happens next!! Character development was outstanding and the descriptive words used had me pulled in from page one. I can’t wait for more by this author!
I absolutely enjoyed this book. The author kept me intrigued throughout the book. I’ll definitely read more of her books.
capably written & does a good job with ratcheting up the paranoia but some subplots feel extraneous.
Alice thinks a mysterious caller making a threat is nothing but a hoax. Then the next Wednesday, another call comes in. Maybe the threats are real, but where are they coming from, and who is making them?
Too many different points of view for my liking. It wasn’t much of a page turner for me. Honestly had trouble finishing it.
This is the second book I have recently read by this author, Teresa Driscoll and like the first, "The Friend" I could not put It down until I'd finished it. Once again I found myself reading in the middle of the night.
In "I will make you pay", the author deals first hand with the subject of stalking with courage and great insight. I also liked the sub-story between the P.I. and police and it's link in both books.
The plot progressed nicely - a mix of flashbacks and the present. At around 80% I had figured out the why, but not the who. The book was decently written (stalker books freak me out) yet I wasn't overly impressed. It was an okay read.
The author does a wonderful job of making you experience the terror of a woman being stalked. The sense of paranoia and fear are real. While there are characters from earlier books, this one works well as a standalone. Told from the viewpoint of three characters, you will travel back and forth as you learn the background story. This is a book you will have trouble putting down once you start reading it.
Thank you to NetGalley and Thomas & Mercer for my advanced review copy. All opinions and thoughts are my own.
Really gripping book. Kept me guessing until the end. Will be reading more from this author..
Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers.
This was a phenomenal read. The idea of a new terror each week that you knew was coming but didn’t know what would be the result…chilling. Well written. Definitely worth reading!
Once again I will make you pay is another amazing book from Teresa Driscoll, this is a intense and chilling story that i really enjoyed. I stayed up through the night reading this and i got chills reading in the dark. A psychological thriller that draws you in, makes you think you know what is going to happen then you've got it all wrong, i love that feeling in books that i read. It was intense and scary, always had me guessing and wondering. Would recommend 5*
This is a well-written psychological mystery with an eerie stalker subplot and I have enjoyed every page! OK, some might complain that the identity of the perpetrator was actually veiled for too long and in the light for only a few moments - and yes, there is some truth to that. But I like the smart twist included with the perp's identity!
The motives of all the characters are well explained and I find them both smart and believable.
MS Driscoll may need to work on her mastery, but I certainly see the talent here - the kind of talent who can bring the modern time angle, yet still stay faithful to the old good tradition of well explained mystery. Good read!
Told from multiple perspectives and going back and forth in time, this was one crazy ride! I don’t have any problem with Wednesday’s, but I might now! Imagine having a threat hanging over you that you know will come ONLY on Wednesday’s. Crazy!
Alice, the one being threatened, has no clue what she has done or who she has offended somehow. As a journalist, it’s not too surprising, but all her stuff seems to have been well received. Alice is at a loss. The police are at a loss. So her boyfriend insists on hiring a private investigator, Matthew.
After Matthew realizes he’s not getting the full story from Alice regarding her past, well he’s less than happy.
Somehow Ms. Driscoll manages to tie many storylines together and keep the stalker a secret until the end. At least, I didn’t have this one figured out! 4.5 ⭐️‘s
Thank you to NetGalley for the copy of this ebook #IWillMakeYouPay #NetGalley
This was one i should have read when i first received it because it ended up being so crazy and so good, very well written and kept me on my toes the entire time I was reading it. so many different aspect of this book that i liked, especially that almost everyone had some sort of secret. All of the big reveals came in the last part of the book and it was so surprising to see who it was and why, plus closure as well. Will definetly read more books from this author!
Excellently written but predictable. I Will Make You Pay is a decent mystery novel with plenty of twists and turns but the payoff just isn't there.
This is a well done thriller that slowly ramps up the tension felt by a woman who is being stalked. Thanks to netgalley for the ARC.
Story line was pretty trite and the characters lacked any depth. There are much better entries in the "British Girls in Trouble" genre.
I never figured out the mystery so I suppose that's good but all the directions the book took to try to convince me it was someone else were too much. I found a lot of the book boring and ended up skimming some pages just to see if something happened. It didn't. None of the characters were interesting to me either so overall, the book was just meh. Not for me.
This book was creepy but predictable. The writing was good, however, it seems like I've read books like this a million times in the past. I crave originality.
