About this deal

Psychologically twisted so you question everything, mentally demanding because you have to concentrate on the plot to solve the riddle and wonderfully inviting because it is written by an author who knows how to write the ultimate killer thriller. This will be my last book. I won’t write another. The reason should be clear by the time you come to the end of the story. That’s an interesting word-story. Is this a true story? Is it a memoir? Or fiction? I can’t say… There are only two things you need to know: If you enjoy thrillers to keep you dangling for answers whilst ramping up the pace then you definitely need to read TWISTED!

The second positive is that my copy of “The Accomplice” (Eddie Flynn #7) is on its way to me from the U.K. So I am completely caught up and ready for what’s next! Can’t wait!A fantastic standalone thriller. Punchy, ridiculously gripping, fast-paced, clever. Beautifully-plotted and incredibly fun to read. He’s done it again. SUPERB.’ Will Dean The book opens with the memorial service for author, J.T. LeBeau, finally identified. LeBeau has been a cipher for years, turning out just one thriller a year. His fame and prestige soaring as his mystique grew. No one knew who he was, at least no one who was still alive. Oddly, his books bore more than a passing resemblance to a number of actual murders. Cavanagh κατορθώνει να σε κάνει να αμφιβάλλεις κάθε στιγμή γι’ αυτό που διαβάζεις. Σε κάνει να ανατρέχεις στις προηγούμενες σελίδες για να σιγουρευτείς για αυτό που είναι γραμμένο εκεί, γιατί ανατρέπεται με τέτοιον τρόπο αργότερα που μοιάζει σαν επιτυχημένο, αλλά αλλόκοτο μαγικό τρικ. Χτίζει μια θεωρία και τη θρέφει για λίγο, απλά για να έρθει λίγο μετά και να την καταρρίψει πανηγυρικά, ορθώνοντας στη θέση της μια άλλη. Ξανά και ξανά… μέχρι το τέλος. Οπωσδήποτε ο αναγνώστης χρειάζεται πολλή υπομονή και προσήλωση στην αφήγηση, όπως και διάθεση γι�� ένταση και σκέψη, ώστε να τα βγάλει πέρα σ’ αυτό το επικίνδυνο και ιδιοφυές παιχνίδι της γάτας με το ποντίκι που παίζει μαζί του ο συγγραφέας, αλλά και οι ήρωες μεταξύ τους. The truth can be far too brutal.Maria has been married to Paul Cooper for almost two years, but not very happily. Paul travels a lot, and he’s emotionally distant even when he’s home. So Maria has been having an affair with Daryl for almost five months. But just as she’s preparing to leave Paul, she finds some papers that show he’s been hiding his identity from her this whole time, that Paul is really the secretive, best-selling author J.T. LeBeau. Angry at his deception, Maria decides to stage her discovery as a burglary to try to pressure Paul into telling her the truth. But Paul has more he’s hiding than than just his secret life as an author, and Maria has started a chain reaction that threatens them both …. On my specific instructions my publisher have not edited this text. There have been no editorial notes, structural edits or other outside interference.

Maria leads a quiet life with her semi-secretive husband Paul. She feels unfulfilled in all the ways that matter and thus as an affair with Daryl, with whom she discovers paperwork that leads them to believe her husband Paul is actually an author worth millions. Instead of being upfront about the whole matter they take the low road and get semi-aggressive. To say the least, things get out of hand. Because there is another player in their game they know nothing of. It's full of gritty secrets, lies, deceit, hidden identity, red herrings, and just when you think you found the puzzle piece, think again!King, ή μάλλον για να μιλήσω πιο σωστά, μου θύμισε τα συναισθήματα που μου δημιουργούνταν όταν νεότερη (προ εικοσαετίας) διάβαζα τα βιβλία του King. Η ατμόσφαιρα είναι εξαιρετική και οι χαρακτήρες αναλύονται στον βαθμό που πρέπει, χωρίς να γίνει η παραμικρή προσπάθεια να γίνουν συμπαθείς (παίρνουν όλοι ανεξαιρέτως από εμένα το βραβείο των πιο αντιπαθητικών μυθιστορηματικών ηρώων του 2020). Η πλοκή εξελίσσεται με τεράστια μαεστρία, οι σκέψεις των πρωταγωνιστών και τα όσα διαδραματίζονται περιγράφονται με μεγάλη προσοχή, ενώ οι αποκαλύψεις του παρελθόντος δίνονται ακριβώς τη χρονική στιγμή που πρέπει. Πραγματικά, πολλές φορές αναρωτήθηκα πώς θα καταφέρει να κλείσει αυτήν την ιστορία, αλλά τελικά όλα μπήκαν στη θέση τους χωρίς να μου μείνουν κενά. When Sheriff Abraham Dole, and his Deputy of very few words, Melissa Bloch, are called in to a break in at the Coopers home, they can feel something is off, particularly when nothing is taken. This turns out to be the beginning of an investigation for them that is to test them to their limits as it spirals in completely unexpected directions, and begins to take in a long ago case that involved the murder of a woman who was never identified in Port Lonely, a case Dole has never forgotten. This is a story of a rising body count in murders, of characters that are nothing as they appear, unreliable memories, and two authors in the process of writing their latest books, one a murderous predator, the other trying merely to survive. Thank you to Tracy at Compulsive Readers Tours for this copy which I reviewed honestly and voluntarily. From here on in, don’t believe a single word you read.”, and it’s not until the author wraps up this mind bender of a book that you finally understand what sits behind this sound bite.
