Hooked from the very beginning as usual with all of Freida's books! Fact paced and easy to read with twists nobody can see coming, who could ask for more?!

While eleven-year-old Nora Davis was up in her bedroom doing homework, she had 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 his life behind bars, and Nora is a successful surgeon with a quiet, solitary existence. Nobody knows her father was a notorious serial killer. And she intends to keep it that way.
Then Nora discovers one of her young female patients has been murdered. In the same unique and horrific manner that her father used to kill his victims.
Somebody knows who Nora is. Somebody wants her to take the fall for this unthinkable crime. But she's not a killer like her father. The police can't pin anything on her.
As long as they don't look in her basement
Thank you to NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for giving me an advance copy.

This book really just took me for a ride. I loved the build up, the character development, and the writing. I would definitely read more from this author!

Freida McFadden can just crank out those mystery thrillers. It's unbelievable she can still come up with plot twists that carry weight.

With its well-crafted plot and compelling characters, "The Locked Door" keeps readers hooked from start to finish. McFadden successfully combines elements of mystery and psychological drama, creating a narrative that lingers long after the final page. I thoroughly enjoyed the book's gripping storyline and would highly recommend it to those who appreciate a tense, mysterious thriller that skillfully navigates the darker facets of human nature.

I absolutely loved this book, I was gripped right from the start! Reading how Nora has done everything she can to distance herself from her evil father’s reputation had me on the edge of my seat. I loved learning about Nora’s childhood even if it gave me chills! This book made me feel like I was there, helping Nora to uncover everything that’s been happening. I couldn’t put this fast paced, psychological thriller down! I can’t wait to read another Freida McFadden book!

Yes!! Every thing yes!!! This story was so intriguing. I was hooked from the beginning. Reads so quickly. Highly recommend.

Actually give this 4 1/2 stars. This was so enjoyable. Kept me on the edge of my chair the whole time. The chapters are short The main character, Nora, has many layers to her. This book had me guessing and wondering the whole time. Timeline alternates between present and Nora's childhood and was done very well. I did not see the plot twist coming in this psychological thriller. Thanks to NeGgalley for sending me the ebook ARC for my honest review.

Another great book by Frieda. McFadden. This author does not disappoint. Great hook, keeps you guessing! 4 of 5 stars.

I read this book so fast. This was my third book by this author and I can already tell you that this will not be the last, in fact im working my way through the rest of her books. The twist I didn't see coming. I actually gasped and I was on the phone with someone and he was very much worried about my well being. I love this book, can't wait for more.

How do you leave your past behind when your father was killing women in your house when you were a child? You don't when the past comes back to haunt you because you are now a suspect in a murder. I really enjoyed this book and the twists that had me reading into the night!

4 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I thoroughly enjoyed this book for many reasons! I loved the short, quick chapters, the fast pacing of this story, and the character development of each of the characters!
Nora Davis is the daughter of a notorious serial killer dubbed "the handyman." Her father told her he was working in the basement, but he was actually killing women in their basement. She has since moved on, become a surgeon, and changed her name, hoping no one knows that she is related to a deadly killer imprisoned for life for his crimes.
Her world is rocked when a copycat killer begins killing women she has seen in her medical practice in the same manner of her father.
Thank you to Poisoned Pen Press and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC.

The Locked Door revolves around surgeon Nora. She keeps herself to herself with just work and home. She has no significant other or any pets etc. the reason being is that Nora’s father is a serial killer called The Handyman. She doesn’t want to let anyone in and no one knows her true identity and surname. She’s getting by until two of her patients turn up dead - and both have had their hands severed like her father used to do. Who’s the copycat?…

The Locked Door is a super quick read by Freida McFadden. The writing kept me interested all throughout the story and the ending didn't disappoint. Another twisty psychological thriller that will keep you guessing until the end. Thank you NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for the Advance Review Copy.

I love this author! She is amazing at leaving little breadcrumbs throughout the story to make you think one way. She is also the best at including small details to make sure her ending is plausible. I appreciate full-circle and well-thought out stories which is why I like her writing style.

I would recommend to readers that like mystery thrillers with twists and turns. I don't like really gory or violent stories on or off the screen and I was able to read this.

Wow this book sucked me in! I loved Nora’s narration, the dual timelines, & the short chapters with its fast pace. And I was not expect that twist, though I thought I’d figured it out. Thank you, Freida McFadden, for proving me wrong! And thank you to NetGalley for an advanced copy.
