Wow............ this is an edge of your seat fast passed thriller that will keep you up all night you will not be able too put it down

The story is told over dual timelines. It is a gripping mystery that is full of intrigue and twists. It is very character driven.

I just read back to back Kathryn Croft books and they were both incredible. I just finished this one and I'm now skipping my TBR list to go back and find another of hers to read! Obsessed!!!!

#TheSuspect #NetGalley
Twenty years Jessica lost her mom at the hands of a murderer. At the time of the murder, Jess was two years old and has no memory of the tragic event. Throughout the years, she remained eager to learn the details of the murder. Her eagerness morphed into an obsession with learning what happened that fateful day twenty years ago. One Friday afternoon while walking in Camden, a stranger approaches Jess. As the stranger came closer, she recognised him as the man who everyone blamed for her mother’s murder, but with the lack of evidence an arrest was not made. He insists on speaking with her as he needs her to know he did not murder her mother. The information he imparts leaves Jess more confused than ever. If what the stranger said was true, then it would mean her family lied to her and she would need to find the truth for herself. In her desire to learn the truth, she went to the persons who would have the answers. However, they all tell her to leave the past where it belongs. This made more obsessed with uncovering the truth. The more she digs, the more secrets come to light. Soon she’s entangled in a web of deceit, lies and secrets. A web, which if untangled, will unravel her entire world.
Thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for giving me an advance copy.

Thank you to Netgalley for allowing me to read this book in return for an honest review. I’m a fan of Kathryn Croft and have read a few of her books already so I was hoping that I would enjoy this one too. The story jumps from the present to the past throughout the book but it is easy enough to grasp what timeline you are reading. I found this book to be a really good psychological thriller with lots going on and a really in-depth story. I have to admit that I didn’t see the ending coming at all! A really good plot twist. I would definitely recommend this book and I have given it 4 stars.

Wow this book is phenomenal and utterly breathtaking. I found it hard to put down. Well the twists just keep coming until the mind blowing ending.

Right from the very beginning you get drawn in and will not be able to put this down until the very end.

I've read a few of her books and they never fail to impress and keep me hooked.
The characters were book and the storyline was brilliant as was the writing style.

more please

Another fantastic read from Kathryn Croft and she is fast becoming one of my favourite authors. The characters were so lifelike and I was rooting for the protagonist right until the very end. The writing, as usual, was brilliant. It had me absorbed and invested in every second. I can’t wait to read more from the author in the future. Thank you to Netgalley, the author, and publisher for a chance to read this book.

Lori was murdered twenty eight years ago as she walked in the park. She had her two year old daughter Jess with her in a pushchair. Jess grew up with her father and stepmother but , of course, had no recollection of that day. A man was accused of the murder but not convicted so the case was left unsolved. Thirty years later Jess is approached by this man who still protests his innocence but needs to tell Jess what happened. Her family try and persuade her not to have anything to do with him and before she can speak to him he is found dead. Who wanted him dead and why are her family lying to her? Jess goes to his flat and finds evidence that the man was telling the truth, so who did kill her mother? The story is told in two timelines , the past by Lori and the present by Jess. This book has a gripping plot with tension, suspense and plenty of twists and turns. A really enjoyable read.
Thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for giving me the opportunities to read and review this book.

THE SUSPECT By Kathryn Croft

I was just a little girl, fast asleep in my stroller, the day my mother was killed. I don’t remember anything about the sunny day that turned so dark.
But now, twenty years later, when the man walks towards me in the shadows of an empty street, his eyes on me for just a fraction too long, a shiver goes down my spine. I recognise his face from the picture in the papers. He killed my mother.
I try to run but he wants me to listen. He says that he is innocent, that the police got it wrong, and that my family have been lying to me for years.

😊What i liked -

✔ Psychological Thriller/Mystery.
✔ The book is written with Jess and Lori's POV. So it was quite interesting going back and forth in timelines.
✔ It slowly sucks you into the mystery and makes you want to know what happens next.
✔ The author compels you to make your own assumptions on what really happened to Lori.
✔ Good plotline with interesting revelations to keep you intrigued till the end.

🤔What could have been better -

✔ There were a few times I was not convinced about two of the characters.

📈My Rating : 4/5


Thank you, Kathryn Croft and Bookouture , for a copy.

Told in 2 timelines , past and present. Past being the mother and the present being Jess. This book had twists and a superb ending. Very much a character driven story.

This was my first book by Kathryn Croft, and I am happy to say this will not be my last! I truly enjoyed this book and thought I had it figured out, but was totally wrong!

A woman is murdered in front of her young child, Jess. Jess grows up not knowing the truth about her mother’s murder, and knows the murderer was never caught. She comes across a strange man and this interaction makes her question everything. Who murdered her mother? Will she ever be able to solve this mystery? The twists and turns in this book continue right to the very end!

I found this book quite slow and a lot of the twists were predictable. An OK read but not one of Kathryn's best books
Thanks to Netgalley for the opportunity to read this ARC
