About this deal

One day, while perusing the 'London Gazette' on the train, Zoe is startled to see a picture of herself. The paranoia and anxiety increases as Zoe goes from being unsure if she has anything to worry about to feeling hunted. The first chapters were a bit on the rough side with too many unnecessary tangents from main character Zoe's point of view. But has it ever occurred to you – even once – that perhaps it is we ourselves who are being minutely observed? The author’s meticulous detail to investigative accuracy and talent in weaving a thrilling tale set her work apart from others in the field.

Zoe dismisses it and resumes her regular family life with her two adult children, Katie and Justin, and her live-in boyfriend, Simon. I'm not a fan of dual-POVs where the characters aren't narrated in the same POV—Zoe's chapters were in first person and Kelly's in third person. There's a false sense of security because there are so many potential witnesses, but everyone is caught up in their own lives and gadgets, oblivious to the world around them. There, among ads for escort services and dating sites, is her photo - associated with an ad for 'FINDTHEONE.There is another character that is introduced in Chapter 2, Kelly Swift, an emotionally troubled but dedicated cop. She joined the force as a police constable in January 2004, a position she held for the next four years before, in January 2008, being promoted to a police sergeant. As is highlighted at one stage in the story, when was the last time you checked your Facebook privacy settings?

It’s hard to say too much about the book as to do so would probably involve some level of spoilers for anyone who hasn’t read the book yet.

in the tradition of psychological suspense, paranoia grows throughout the novel, and suspicion is cast on many people close to zoe, increasing her anxiety and leaving her with no one to trust. Like thousands of city residents, fortyish Zoe Walker commutes to work every day on the London Underground - contending with the noise, jostling, and strangers packed too close.I See You made me think really hard about the society that we live in and how our images are out there for the world to see and still. Overall, though, I enjoyed the book, and it kept me guessing about who the baddie was until the end. The premise of the story, that our 'personal information' is too public, is very relevant to modern times. Clare spent nearly a decade writing about life in the Cotswolds—the challenges and triumphs of living in the rural area with a young family. At this point Kelly’s supervisor is beginning to see the light and provides backup for Kelly’s investigation.

They try to convince her that there's nothing to worry about, but she can't shake the nagging feeling that something is wrong.which, yes, is what The Girl on the Train did, but this is completely its own thing, although paula hawkins does blurb it, because british transportation-based thriller writing women gotta stick together. Kelly manages to finagle her way onto the Metropolitan Police’s Murder Investigation Team to assist on the case, immediately crossing swords with the lead investigator, DI Nick Rampello, as the MIT scrambles to prevent another tragic death. Coulee: a term applied rather loosely to different landforms, all of which refer to a kind of valley. Your protagonist, Zoe, is tired, underpaid, works way too hard and looks after two demanding grown-up children.
