When 18-year-old Janie White is left for dead after a road collision the whole community is in shock but no one is ever brought to justice for the shocking crime.
20 years later the events of that night are about to come back and haunt those involved, lives will be turned upside down and futures destroyed. It seems it is finally time for Janie to get justice but there seems to be someone who is determined to stop that happening.
The story is told mainly from the point of view of three people. Janie White, rock star Robbie Manning and witness support officer Vanessa. It twists and turns as it takes you through their lives to the shocking truth of what happened not only with the accident but in the time before and after.

A gripping story of three disparate strands - Janie, young, beautiful and with an exciting life ahead of her is terribly damaged by a hit and run accident. Vanessa, widowed and unsure of her place in the world finds that her late husband had a terrible secret, and a famous rock star who is living with a terrible secret of his own. It takes tremendous skill as a writer to bring three such contrasting strands together at the end of a story, without spoiling the denouement for the reader. Jane Corry does so brilliantly in this addictive page turner.

I love Jane Corry's books and this one was no exception. An absolutely cracking read, Loved the characters especially Vanessa, The plot practically sizzled along. So pleased I got to read this

I have really enjoyed novels by this author in the past, and was very excited to have her latest book to read. Years ago, there was a terrible accident, and a young girl was left with life changing injuries. Robbie Manning is a famous rock star and family man - what was his involvement in the accident? We also meet Vanessa who is a witness service support officer - why was her husband so affected by one of his final cases as a policeman? As the stories weave together, we see how each character was involved in past tragedies. A slightly convoluted plot with some spurious plots thrown into the mix, but this remains an involving and gripping thriller.

Outstanding, as usual, from Jane Corry.
I raced through this book quickly, as I just couldn't put it down (I may have cancelled plans for this book!).
The book starts with an eighteen-year-old girl who is just about to really start her life when she is knocked over and left for dead.
We then meet a variety of characters and follow their lives in that special, gripping way that Jane writes so well.
I really enjoyed this book and can't wait for the next Jane Corry sensation.

Seriously gripping stuff!
Every character is beautifully written, particularly Vanessa, who seems to have had the roughest hand dealt to her (except Janie of course). The differences in the lives led by Janie, Vanessa and Robbie are stark and full of "what if" situations for all of the characters.
The story is cleverly woven between perspectives and as the truth unfolds there are plenty of unexpected turns.

Another good read from Jane Corry which had so many twists and plots it left me reeling. Several peoples stories that reveal during the book that they are all linked to one tragic accident, with none of them having spotless characters. A mistake in the past comes back to haunt a famous music star as he is arrested and charged with leaving a girl critically and horrifically injured in a collision. He initially pleads guilty in an effort to protect his family but when his wife urges him to tell the truth he reluctantly agrees. The Judge himself has a past and is being blackmailed, as is the witness support officer, who herself has a tragic past and a shocking revelation that makes her see her deceased husband in a different light. So many plots and side stories that eventually come together but with a past final twist. Stunning read!

Another great read from Jane. Spread over a period of many years ,starting with a teenage girl{Janie} being left for dead after a hit and run accident , when she was returning home on her bike from the beach after a swim ,She had been hit by a white van whose occupants were a band heading for a gig.
The lead detective on the investigating team.Jack, swore to catch the culprits but got nowhere . Over the years Janie's memory starts to return and the lead singer of the band,now a famous solo artist ,is arrested.but all is not as it appears , with the other band members being part of a criminal family. This family has been using threats of violence and death to get Robbie {the singer} convicted and imprisoned for the accident.
Things do not go as they hoped and the links between all the characters involved are revealed and a number of secrets kept by each one are revealed.

As other reviewers nave indicated this is an almost compulsively readable story with lots of twists and turns. I must also say that some of the plot and characterization is a little shallow, and at times not credible but funnily enough, this did not spoil the enjoyment.

A new author for me, but one I will now follow with eager anticipation.

Three characters are the backbone of the book a young girl Janie who had life changing injuries years ago, a young lad made good as a popstar and Vanessa who works as a court support volunteer. Vanessa has own issue to contend with and also give support to Janie the young lady.

I thought I had the book worked out before halfway, but that many red herrings came up I was totally wrong.

Excellent writing. Waiting for the next novel.

Wow this book does not disappoint and was a great way to finish off my 2023 reading list. We meet a young girl whose life has been turned upside down after a dreadful accident almost killed her. When years later a famous musician is arrested for her attempted murder she is determined to have her voice finally heard but is the truth of the events ever going to come out and who is telling the truth. Whilst all of this takes place an innocent old lady is also having her life turned upside down by a mysterious new friend.,

Where do I start. This book totally gripped me, it was unputdownable and Christmas got in my way. I just don't know where to start without giving too much away. There are many twists and turns. The characters are believable and this thriller is well written. If you only read one book in 2024, make it this one. You won't regret it.

Wow, what a book.

I can't even begin to explain how fab this book is without giving away plot secrets.

It starts with a tragic accident then it's all about the secrets I think every character is hiding... So that's all I can say about that!

Oh what a tangled web we weave when we conspire to decieve

All I'll say is set aside some proper reading time and devour this.

Loved this book. Thanks to netgalley for the opportunity to review this book this is my honest opinion.

A slow burn, psychological thriller, which explores events surrounding a hit and run accident that leaves a young girl in a coma. Well written, this story is full of secrets, lies and self-preservation.
The characters (Robbie a successful pop star, Vanessa a witness liaison volunteer and Janie a young girl on the verge of chasing her dreams in London), are interesting, well developed and richly drawn in this intriguing novel.
Even though the plot is a little implausible, it’s so well written and well executed that it gripped me and I needed to know what was happening. Extremely entertaining it kept me turning pages well into the night
Overall this was well written and totally immersive. At times totally intriguing.
A twisty tale told in 2 timelines and multiple POVs which were easy to follow.
Very enjoyable. Recommended.
Many thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley UK for the ARC.

A great suspenseful read by Jane Corry. At the start it's hard to see how the all the characters are connected but all makes sense as the book goes on. Plenty of twists and turns and just as I think I know what really happened some thing else happens and back to thinking again. A real page turner that I highly recommend. I can't wait to read more by this author.

A big thank you to @penguinukbooks, @janecorry and @netgalley for allowing me to read this book before its release in exchange for an honest review.

I was recently introduced to Jane Corry via her newest release - Coming to Find You. I really enjoyed that read and vowed that it wouldn’t be my last Corry. Alas, I enjoyed this ARC just as much, if not more!

I Died on a Tuesday follows the story of three main characters: Janie, a girl who was tragically involved in a hit and run 20 years ago which has left her with life changing injuries; Robbie, a famous singer who has been arrested for the aforementioned crime; and Vanessa, a witness service volunteer who soon discovers a long buried secret which changes her life. You soon discover that each character’s story is intertwined inextricably and this makes for a very gripping read.

I must say that I 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 enjoyed parts 1 & 2 - I was engrossed from the very first page and couldn’t put the book down. I just wanted to keep reading and find out what happened next. I did, unfortunately, find that the storyline lost its way slightly in part 3 and I got a little confused with what felt like a bit of information overload. I didn’t really understand the relevance of the Tuesday/Wednesday discovery.

That being said, the majority of the book I absolutely loved and I would definitely recommend to anybody looking for a compelling psychological suspense novel.

Janie has her whole life ahead of her when she is tragically injured and left for dead following a hit and run. The perpetrator was never found.

For Robbie Manning, famous rock star, the knock at the door is one he has been terrified of receiving for the last twenty years. A witness has come forward to say Robbie was responsible for the accident and Janie’s subsequent injuries. How will he survive if he is convicted and imprisoned and will his family stand by him? Will he find the courage to tell the truth about that day?

Following the death of her husband, Vanessa has taken up a role supporting witnesses testifying in court. Through this she has made an unlikely friendship with one of the judges who she fondly refers to as ‘Judge’. Revelations throughout the book provide Vanessa with the knowledge that her husband had lied to her on more than one occasion.

The story is told primarily through these three main characters. While the first two thirds of the book were outstanding the last third let the overall story down a wee bit as there seemed to be way too many things happening which detracted from the main storylines. Overall a really good read though and I especially liked how almost all the loose ends were tied up. I say almost as there was some discussion in the book around the ‘Tuesday’ in the title but nothing ever came of it.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for an advanced read copy of this book in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

This was a great read. Lots of twists and turns as you find out what connects the characters in this intriguing plot. A highly recommended book

I love Jane Corry and I have read all her books and this is as brilliant as ever. Janie's story is very moving and the tribulations faced by Rob, Vanessa and Judge make you root for them from the very beginning. I couldn't put this book down whilst at the same time I didn't want to end. Totally absorbing read and one of my favourite books so far.

You literally cannot go wrong with a Jane Corry novel, they are always going to be a great read.

The storyline here is so innovative and interesting and I have to say I was genuinely fascinated by the whole process around the victim support and the court scenes. As well as Vanessa simply being a superb character, I was engrossed in that side of things and that captured my interest just as much as the whole crime drama aspect of the story.

Overall, this was super intriguing and a great insight into the different sides of human behaviour - running the whole spectrum through good and bad.
