Happy publication day to Exit! 75 year old Felix Pink arrives at number 3 Black Lane to perform an act of kindness and charity - keeping a terminally ill man company as he exits life. Only minutes later, after making the biggest mistake of his life, Felix is on the run from the police. Exit sees Felix trying to work out what went wrong whilst trying to evade the law.
I'll be honest after reading Snap, which I didn't rate I wasn't expecting to enjoy Exit half as much as I did. I have been sitting on my advanced copy of this book from Random House for almost 12 months, after a global pandemic delayed the original publication date, I'm so happy I actually got around to it.
Belinda Bauer has successfully written an intriguing and heart-warming book about a really dark subject matter whilst still managing to maintain a twisty mystery throughout. The characters are so endearing and humorous, reading them was an absolute delight.
I'm so glad I gave Bauer a second chance because I will definitely be reading more in future!
