A review by emmalynn
Woman on the Edge by Samantha M. Bailey

4.0

I was hooked as soon as I started reading Woman on the Edge. Actually I was hooked as soon as I read the blurb but contrary to many thrillers, the book itself wasn't disappointing compared to its blurb.

It's not particularly original, it's the usual 2 points of views (and 2 timelines) narration but it's really well done.

You need a good dose of suspension of disbelief with this one but I don't mind that, at least things were happening all the time, and the tension was there until nearly the end (I say "nearly" because I think the guilty party is revealed a tiny bit too soon).

I had guessed who was responsible for everything very, very early in the book (IMO, that person stands out like a sore thumb) but again, I didn't mind. I had no idea when it came to the motive and I would never have guessed it (even if, again, it's not unheard of or anything like that).

Anyway, a good little thriller that won't revolutionize the genre but will keep you entertained while you read it.
