Let’s first start by saying I’m a big Freida McFadden fan. Any thriller where I don’t see the end/twist coming will warrant a 5 star review and The Locked Door did not disappoint.

I was so determined I knew who the killer was that I was starting to get disappointed in the book lol. I was pleasantly surprised.

As always I highly recommend this book and Freida McFadden if you love psychological thrillers.

I've been on a Freida reading streak. This one was OK. Not my favorite of hers but I'm glad I read it. It wasn't disappointing. I enjoy her shorter chapters and her writing style is easy to read.

Freida McFadden's books never cease to amaze me! I have read so many and yet they are all so different. The Locked Door was a thriller full of twists that I couldn't even guess. I love the way everything tied up in the end, leaving no loose ends.

When Nora was 11 her father was arrested for murdering women. Twenty-six years later, Nora is a surgeon keeping her past a secret.

I love it when a thriller has short, action-packed chapters and this one delivered! I wanted to keep reading just one more chapter to see what would happen next. I loved that I thought I knew the twist but I was wrong! The misdirections were well executed. I do wish there was a bit more character development though because I felt that I didn't feel as connected to Nora as I would have liked.

Overall I give it a 3.75/5. It was a good, quick read with a compelling story!

Thank you NetGalley and Poisonwood Press for the complimentary digital copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This is one of my favorites by Frieda McFadden! Twisty, thought-provoking, and entertaining from start to finish!

Thank you to the publisher!

Freida never disappoints!!! Her twists keep on twisting and I’m so excited for this book to become available for more people to enjoy in different formats! It’s the same locked door we all fell in love with on our kindle!

So good! One of my favorite Freida books!

4.5 Stars

Omg this book was so good, I literally could not put it down!

Nora is the daughter of a serial killer and is trying to live her life as a doctor far away from her past. This story was told in the present but also through flashbacks from Nora’s past. It was a great way to tell her story.

The end was full of twists and turns and really surprised me!

One thing I could have done without was the romance. I didn’t really but into it but I’m not sure I was supposed to.

There were also several some loose ends for me making me question if there will be a book two.

Overall I really loved this and I am absolutely loving Freida McFadden’s totally addictive story telling!

This was a great read, I enjoyed the twists of it. Although I did spot the red herring right away. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The only reason I gave it a four was because I felt there was quite a plot hole in the ending. Otherwise it was very well written.

This is my second read by this author and it did not disappoint. This book was page turner. Everytime I read a chapter it kept me guessing and I was wrong the whole entire time. I really like how the author wrote this book as a mystery/thriller. You always wanted to know what was behind "The Locked Door".

Freida McFadden is now well known for writing super fast and enthralling thrillers - you will fly through her books and they are super easy to read. This one was the same! The book will keep you guessing til the end - and seriously worry for the main character and all the other characters.

I know that Freida is known for rewriting other thriller stories into a simpler and faster version for her patients, but they are enjoyable for anyone!

I recommend if you are in a reading rut and need a good thriller to get you out of it quickly that's easy to read!

I couldn't put this one down! Even though the story structure didn't necessarily feel unique, it was still very fun and exciting.

Of course Freida does it again! This book kept me up to the early hours of the morning, trying to piece together, who was behind the murders. I can honestly say that all of my rabbit holes and theory’s did not help me to figure out the ending. What an awesome Aha moment it was for me. That darn stray cat did have me jumping out of my skin a time or two though.

This book is about our morally grey FMC Nora who a surgeon who has been working hard to keep her past a secret. Because 26 years ago her father was arrested for the murder of 18 women. He was named the Handyman because all he kept of his victims were their severed hands. Her father held all of his victims in his “workshop” in the basement behind a locked door.

The trouble is Nora’s carefully hidden past has comes out to play when one of her previous patients is found dead. The trouble is this patient had dark hair and blue eyes the exact same type of woman that her father killed.

Now with a detective on her tail she’ll have to face the past she’s buried for years and the person that she’s become. With her dad locked up for life is this a copycat or something far more sinister.

5 reasons I tun you would read this book:
1. You love yourself a boss babe with some serious daddy issues
2. You love to stay up late trying to decipher red strings worth of …..hey look over here
3. You love a stray cat that knows a home when it sees one.
4. You love you a nosy neighbor …. Who has a lot of tea
5. You love a serial killer read

4 solid stars!

When Nora Davis was eleven years old, she was busy doing homework in her room. Little did she know, her father was doing something terrible: killing women in the basement.

Years later, Nora's dad is in prison, and she has become a successful surgeon leading a quiet life. No one knows her father was a serial killer, and she plans to keep it that way.

But things change when Nora finds out one of her young patients was murdered in a way similar to her father's killings.

Someone seems to know Nora's secret. They want to blame her for the crime, but she's not like her father. The police can't accuse her of anything as long as they don't investigate her basement.

I've only read another book by Freida McFadden, 'The Housemaid,' and I have to admit that it didn't convince me, even though it's a favorite among many! However, I really enjoyed this one; it kept me on the edge of my seat, and I couldn't stop reading it! This is the feeling that makes me love a thriller and consider it a good one.

It was addictive and fast-paced, so I definitely recommend it if you're looking for a page-turner. I can't wait to read more of this author's works!

I will not be giving feedback on this title as I did not get to read it. I will be reading it at some point but did not get to it. Sorry! I meant to start it but realized it was not a new release anyhow, just a new cover.

I've heard a lot about Freida McFadden, so when I saw this book on here I had to give it a shot. This is my first book by her, and definitely won't be the last - it was the right pacing, with a good buildup that kept me up at night. Will be picking up more works from her this year for sure!

I have enjoyed a lot of Freida books and tend to enjoy them all. This one did not disappoint but was not my favorite. As usual the twist is a shocker. And she will keep you reading and guessing.

This was my first Freida McFadden book and it definitely won’t be my last! I was hooked as soon as it started. I never saw any of the twists coming and was constantly looking to read faster to find out what happens. There were times I felt like I was yelling at Nora to do things differently. The ending was my favorite part especially since the twists kept me on the edge of my seat.

Thank you NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for letting me read The Locked Door. It was a fast and engaging read from start to finish. The Locked Door is a thrilling novel that keeps you on the edge of your seat with its smart twists and turns. Freida McFadden does an excellent job in setting the tone and the characters, making it a must-read for fans of the genre.

This book follow Nora in the present and when she was younger. Nora’s father is in prison for killing women but someone is stalking Nora so her secret is out. This is another great Freida book!

I've read a few Freida McFadden books, and The Locked Door is one I really enjoyed. Fast-paced right from the start, this thriller held my attention and kept me up late. There is a terrific twist near the end. Freida McFadden is an author I will keep coming back to for quick, thrilling reads. Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to review this book.
