This was an AMAZING book. Read it, and you won’t regret it. Alice’s story is terrifying and the suspense is real.

From the very first line, I was drawn into this book. “I am going to use the cheese wire on you.” Wow! “I Will Make You Pay,” by Teresa Driscoll was everything I hoped it would be. I’ve read “I Am Watching You” and “The Promise,” and loved both. Like those novels, “I will Make You Pay,” takes place in Devon, UK. While we meet characters from previous books, “I Will Make You Pay” is a stand-alone story.

One of the most frightening things a woman can experience is a stalker. That’s exactly what Alice, the protagonist of this novel, experiences. Who could want her to suffer? And why do they strike every Wednesday? The characters in Teresa Driscoll’s books are complex and likable. Those in “I Will Make You Pay” are no exception.

The story was told from different points of view with each chapter being labeled appropriately. This helped me to always know whose perspective I was reading. The author kept the pace moving, never bogging us down with unnecessary detail. I often felt as though I was watching a movie. There was no vulgar language that I recall, and no sexually explicit content.

Because Teresa Driscoll was a journalist, she was able to write Alice’s character in a very realistic way. This book will especially appeal to women who love a good mystery. I think Driscoll has become one of my favorite authors. She never disappoints! “I Will Make Your Pay,” will be available on October 10, 2019. Until then, it is available for preorder.

I thank NetGalley and Amazon Publishing UK for providing me with an advance copy of this “I Will Make Your Pay,” in exchange for an honest review.

Wow I will never think of Wednesdays in the same way after reading this book. I really enjoyed the way Teresa Driscoll layed out the story. You are given a piece of the puzzle but not in the order they need to be in. So as you read the book you will see each major player have a chapter and you get a glimpse of what the ending will be. I was gifted this kindle book from Netgalley with the understanding that I would leave an honest review.

This thriller is about Alice Henderson, a woman terrorized by a stalker that only seems to strike every Wednesday. It starts out somewhat intriguing, but quickly turns into a less interesting, slower paced read. It had an okay plot, but I personally prefer thrillers with a bit more grit. I feel like it watered over several key issues, in lieu of making us uncomfortable. I figured out who the stalker was quite a ways before the ending of the book and never really got too invested in the characters. Not a terrible read, just a bit too slow and watered down for my taste. In my opinion there are way too many really great thrillers out there to spend time on this one.

A slow paced book written from different perspectives, 3 different stories intricately tangled but still clearly defined. It took many unexpected turns and left me quite emotional at the end. A very well crafted must read .

It seems that journalist Alice has a stalker. In fact the stalker was so subtle that she didn't even realize she had one until she receives a phone call at work using a voice changer that says "I am going to use cheese wire on you." That alone isn't enough to send Alice into full out panic. The chill amps up as Alice goes to get a coffee and the cafe has her coffee waiting because some guy rang in to say that "Alice will need a double espresso. She's on her way." Creepy. As the stalker amps up his plan, Alice realizes that someone definitely is definitely out to frighten her or worse. Alice's boyfriend Tom hires a private detective named Matthew Hill to help unravel the case. The story telling in this book is taut and does keep the reader mesmerized. I did guess correctly who "dunnit" based on the fact the character in question seemed to always be too nervous and on edge which made me question his/her motivation. Great Read.

I will make you pay by Teresa Driscoll is a 4 star read.
From the first page until the last this book captivated my attention and refused to let it go. Each of the characters are well developed and you end up invested in every one of them, ever the stalker. The ending was a shock I wasn’t expecting as I thought I knew who the stalker was but I was wrong.
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced copy of this book through Netgalley.

Thanks Teresa Driscoll and Netgalley for the advanced reader's copy!!

From the very first chapter, I knew I was going to like this book. As always, the writing style is pretty smooth, love the chapter/character even those that went back to the past. I kept going back and forth imagining who "HIM" was...and how it was all going to unfold.

Once again, another good book by Mrs Driscoll! I look forward to the next one.

It’s an ordinary Wednesday for journalist Alice Henderson until the phone on her desk rings. The caller, using a voice distorter, threatens her. Alice reports this to her editor who calls in the authorities. The police assure Alice they will look into it but are certain it is a onetime threat. When another threat occurs the next Wednesday, the police take it more seriously but have no leads. Is it an article Alice is writing? Or could it be something from her past? As each Wednesday goes by with a new threat, Alice’s boyfriend insists the police aren’t doing enough to protect her. He hires a private detective to try to figure out who could be stalking Alice. Alice’s secrets come to the forefront as the detective works with the police to solve the crime.

I Will Make You Pay kept me engrossed from the beginning to the twist at the end. The story is engaging and the characters are interesting. I will be looking for other books by Teresa Driscoll.

From the first page I was hooked, there is no prologue to tease you, confuse you or mislead you. The drama and terror are there right from the start, and you are in the midst of the story straight away. I started this late at night thinking I’d just read a couple of chapters to feel my way into a new book before I knew it I was 30% of the way in, bleary-eyed and forcing myself to put it down to get some sleep.
I loved the terror and thriller aspect of this book. I wouldn’t leave the house from Tuesday through to Thursday if this were happening to me. So the protagonist did annoy me a little as she still kept meetings on a Wednesday knowing that something could happen to her. Also, when she left travelling back from London until late on the Tuesday night, I was getting really frustrated and antsy. I just wanted her tucked up safe and sound in bed and the house bubble wrapped!
The book alternates between Alice’s version of events, Mathew, the private investigator (who we have met in previous books. I was shocked that he had a stroppy two-year-old on his hands as his wife had only just given birth to an angelic little baby in the last book I read!). There are also chapters entitled ‘Him- before’ giving us an insight into what we presume is the stalker’s life events and what has lead up to him stalking Alice.
It is very well done, the anticipation builds up at a steady pace, and you even feel sorry for the ‘him’ for everything he has gone through in his life. He didn’t choose Wednesdays to be a nightmare; however, he did decide how he would let it affect the rest of his life.
I didn’t see the ending coming; I had guessed why the stalker was doing what he was doing but not who he was. I figured he must be someone we had met because of the voice changer he used right at the very beginning. However, there was no one I could guess that would be in the frame for the leading stalking role. To say I was sideswiped would be an understatement!
Absolutely fantastic, another out of this world, brilliantly written book by Teresa Driscoll!

Thank you NetGalley for an ARC copy of this ebook.

This is my second read by Teresa Driscoll & she did not disappoint. If fact she made me kinda wary of Wednesdays... At least while reading this book.
**
It's Wednesday and you're first introduced to Alice, a journalist who receive the most disturbing call, a voice distorter (which immediately made me think of Ghost face since I just watched Scream last night) telling Alice:
"I am going to use cheese wire on you"
Well.. not the most pleasant call to get; but again she's a journalist and sometimes the nutters do call in. She advises her co-workers and boss, thinking nothing of it until someone (using the Ghost face voice) calls in her order at the coffee shop next door. The police come and take statements as a favor to the editor and that's it... Until the following Wednesday she is delivered peonies, her mother's favorite flower, however they aren't as innocent as they sound... There's a cryptic message hinting at her mothers safety... as well as the stems have brutally been wrap with.. you guessed it cheese wire. Its officially Alice has a stalker... but only on Wednesdays it seems.
As Alice's story unravels you are left thinking her stalker her could anyone. I mean at one point I was placing blame on a sweet Grandmother. As the Wednesdays go by the attacks on Alice from her stalker increase; she isn't safe anywhere; but she also doesn't want to cower in fear.
Will Alice's stalker have the last laugh that costs her life; or will they be stopped before it's too late.

This was a wild ride that had me continually guessing who it could be, while my brain was ping-ponging all over the place trying to read into each character she introduces.

A fast paced thriller ride that will have you sat in the same spot, not moving until you have finished! Get comfy and enjoy the ride.

A real twisty, dark thriller that follows the story of Alice, a journalist, who is being threatened/stalked/punished on the same day every week.

This novel is truly gripping with hidden layers that is full of suspense, tension and has a shocking climatic ending that I didnt guess in the slightest.

This is the 2nd book I have read by Teresa Driscoll and it will most definitely not be the last!

Characters are so well described and open within their narrative but also hold some intrigue which could be carried on into a series.

Loved every minute of this faced paced novel.

Huge thanks to netgalley and the publishers for the ARC.

Unfortunately, this book wasn’t for me. I just couldn’t get into it. I wasn’t connecting with the characters or the story and I gave up pretty early on.

Thank you, NetGalley and the publisher for sending me an ARC of I Will Make You Pay in exchange for an honest review.

An ordinary Wenesday immediately changes when a strange pone call comes for journalist Alice Henderson. Thus starts a suspense novel that will keep you wanting to read till you get to the end. Just the title and cover of the book is enough to draw you in and make you want to read it. Thank you NetGalley for an e-ARC.

I voluntarily read this ARC in return for an honest review - all thoughts and opinions are mine

Fantastic thriller, full of twists and turns
Well written, tense book - I could not put this down

A great read

Very good book! I thought I had it figured out early on, but I was wrong. Even though I discovered the "why" of the antagonist, I was still unsure who he was. I enjoyed all the back stories and misdirections. It kept me guessing.

This was a really good story, it left me guessing the whole way through. There was a creepy feeling to the story....that someone who wishes you harm could have so much access to your life. I read it in one sitting, I really couldn’t put it down.

A highly enjoyable and extremely well crafted thriller. I did not suspect the who until the reveal! Likeable and believable characters. with some very clever world building that isn't much different from current life.

Teresa Driscoll is a new author for me but one that has been added to my auto read list, thank you Netgalley!

Terrific thriller with a surprise twist. Well written and cleverly crafted, I was not disappointed. British mysteries are usually my favorites and this was no exception. Two story lines are told in alternating chapters that ultimately come together for the unpredictable ending. I am always pleased when I cannot predict who is the culprit and this novel maintains the suspense throughout. Thoroughly enjoyable... a great read.

Teresa Driscoll has an exciting stalker mystery i in, I Will Make You Pay.
From the beginning until the shocking conclusion, you won’t want to put it down!
Excellent read. 5 stars from me!
