Absolutely amazing! This was a super quick read for me as most of her books are. Once I started reading it immediately grabbed me and I struggled to put it down! Gotta love all the twists and turns you never see coming. Just when you think you got it all figured out you better think agains.
Loved this. My first Freda McFadden book but definitely won’t be my last. The atmosphere was so creepy and there was a constant tension that something terrible was going to happen at any moment. I thought for SURE I knew the twist, but man was I wrong.
The ending was so satisfying because while I didn’t see it coming, there was such clear foreshadow in retrospect.
The Locked Door was a quick and interesting read. Although it didn’t take me very long to get through it was not one of my favorites of the authors.
Wow. This book was amazing, thank you for letting me read it. I read the whole thing in less than 24 hrs. The story was very easy to get into. I have to admit, about 1/3 of the way in, I was convinced I knew who the new killer was. The ending totally took me by surprise!!!!! I didn’t see it coming. Very well written
Freida does it again! A quick read that kept me guessing until the end. I love the way she is able to create morally grey characters that you still want to root for!
Another whirlwind psychological thriller from Freida McFadden! This had my on the edge of my seat the whole time I listened. I had no idea what was going to happen next. Really liked it!
Nora's got a secret. An ugly deadly secret that's coming back to get her. Her father was a serial killer and, after he was arrested, she did her best to live a private, quiet life. Now she's an adult and an accomplished physician but a young woman has just been killed- killed just like the women in her father's basement. This is a page turner with some good twists. If you, like me, guess the truth, you'll still have a good time reading this. Thanks to Netgalley for the Arc. McFadden does a great job with keeping the tension up.
The book was face paced, which made it a quick and easy thriller read! There were a lot of parts that I liked, but the overall story was easy to guess and there were no real twists I didn’t see coming. I’m probably give this author another go, because a lot of people do really love her books!
While eleven-year-old Nora Davis was up in her bedroom doing her homework, she has no idea her father was killing women in the basement. Until the day the police arrived at their front door. Decades later, Nora's father is spending time behind bars, and Nora is a successful surgeon with a quiet, solitary existence. Nobody knows her father wad a notorious serial killer. And she intends to keep it that way. Then Nora discovers one of her young female patients had been murdered in the same unique and horrific way that her father used to kill his victims.
The pace is fast in this action-packed read. My intrigue was piqued, I was guessing all the way through, and the ending was perfectly executed. It certainly kept me on my toes throughout. I would have liked to have learned more about Nora's childhood. Just when I thought I had it all worked out, I was wrong. There are plenty of twists and red herrings. I could not put this book down. The story has a creepy vibe to it. This is a quick and easy book to read.
I would like to thank #NetGalley #PoisonedPenPress and the author #FreidaMcFadden for my ARC of #TheLockedDoor in exchange for an honest review.
I enjoyed this fast-paced suspense-thriller, I read it and couldn't put it down. It was slightly predictable, but I like how the story was built solid to the end. This is a must read, definitely worth recommending.
kinda predicted the plot the whole time (😭😭) but still super entertaining🤚 her books just hit different and there’s NO question about it
This wasn't my favorite McFadden book. It was a little too simple for me. Still an enjoyable easy read. Thanks to Net Galley for the ARC.
Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for giving me a copy of this book to read and review. All thoughts are my own.
Freida really keeps a person guessing through out her books. She also keeps you very engaged and on your toes. I will say, this is one of her better books that I’ve read. I couldn’t put this down and was so engrossed that I didn’t realize I read it in one sitting until I was finished. I did catch on to somethings but this book really held my attention and was very enjoyable.
If you like fast pace mystery type books, then I would definitely recommend any Freida book to you.
4 stars.
Amazing as any other Frieda book is hands down Queen of Thriller right here. This women doesnt get nearly enough credit for her work and shes so humble and down to earth not something you would see writing these thrillers like you do when you see Stephen King.
Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to read the ARC (Advance Reader Copy) of The Locked Door by Freida McFadden.
Wow!! Loved the twists and turns. She kept me guessing the whole time. It was a shocker. A quick read and I would highly recommend it to those who enjoy great thrillers. I gave it a 5 star rating! Keep them coming Freida McFadden.
The Locked Door is a suspenseful fast paced story that will have you turning pages till you get done reading it. This is my second book by this author and she has done another great job with her writing. I truly enjoyed reading it. You won't want to miss this book! The ending was well done and something you would not expect at all. Thank you to NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for this ARC read in exchange for my honest review.
Another addictive thriller by Frieda Mcfadden! This one gets a hold of you straight away and takes you for a ride. Sometimes creepy sometimes mysterious. It will have you guessing and guessing again. The reveal itself is quite your typical who dunnit type of reveal with the confession etc etc but I don't care its still a juicy quick read!
McFadden has made a McFan out of me! Loved this jaw dropping thriller that had my undivided attention from chapter 1. So many twisty elements that kept me on edge. Will forever be recommending this read to my friends and family, will even purchase as gifts to my fellow bookworms. 5 stars hands down.
This was truly my favourite Freida McFadden book by far. It was a little different than her usual thrillers but the plot was brilliant and I really enjoyed how I was kept guessing
I really loved The Locked Door by Freida McFadden. It is one of my favorite books of hers that I've read so far. It kept me guessing until the very end, and the twist was amazing! I also listened to this book on audio and it was very entertaining, fast paced, and easy to follow.
