The Only Suspect: A 'twisting, seductive, ingenious' thriller from the bestselling author of The Other Passenger

Product Information

Ook vroeg ik mij af wat het verleden en het heden met elkaar te maken hadden. Ik had namelijk een vermoeden en dit bleek gedeeltelijk goed, MAAR... er kwam op het einde echt nog een plottwist aan die ik dus absoluut niet aan had zien komen! When a nature trail is being built on an area that has been disused for year's Alex starts to worry. He is afraid a secret that he has kept will be discovered and his comfortable suburban life with his wife Beth will be destroyed. This book is phenomenal. The twists and turns it takes had me gasping and wondering how it will all end because there are so many things and scenes that i haven't predicted.

Both timelines are equally riveting. The 1990s vibe of the London scene when you’re young is captured well. Add in some obsession and some behaviour that strikes distinctly off notes and which deepens the enigmatic puzzle. In the present day Alex’s unease is almost palpable and some of his actions raise an eyebrow as they are so questionable. There seems to be encroaching danger and things coming from several angles in both periods of time. There are threats of discovery making the atmosphere extremely intense . It’s brim full of tension occasionally relieved by some dark humour. There is a sense of impending doom overhanging both periods of time which weighs heavy. The BBC also spoke to a close friend of Mustafa Norman, Mr Abdulhak’s father, who revealed that the former president of Yemen met with the student when he left the UK. A British teenage extremist has been jailed after his far-right videos were linked to two mass murders in the US.The Only Suspect is a slow burn - a very slow burn, well, more of a simmer, really - that doesn't really get interesting until over half way through. By that time I was well and truly into 'yeah, nah' mode and wondering if I was reading the same book as everyone else. The characters were believable and everything about the story was plotted well. I will definitely be reading more from this author. And who sparked a police hunt for a murder suspect that was never quite what it seemed? It still isn’t. Great psychological thriller that gets hard to put down as you get to grips with unraveling this unusual story.

Alex and Beth live in an affluent suburb and seem to be living an idyllic existence. That is, until a nature trail is being developed in the area. What might be uncovered? Whatever it is, it has Alex spooked and on edge. By posting these videos online, Harris' toxic rhetoric could have had untold influence on countless people across the world - such actions will not be tolerated," the senior officer said. This is a bit of a slow burn but all of the detail from the past is needed to understand the outcome of the story. After the teenager's conviction, Detective Inspector Chris Brett said attempts were initially made to engage with Harris through the Prevent programme, which aims to stop people becoming terrorists. It’s definitely been a sex act, but it has been forced on Martine, as far as I can understand from all the information I’ve gathered all through the years.”I listened to the full-cast audiobook and all of the narrators did a superb job with the narration. Tweede leven' is niet echt een superspannende thriller en ik zou ook dit verhaal eerder psychologisch noemen. Het leest supervlot en de afwisseling tussen het heden en het verleden vond ik echt goed in elkaar steken (vooral het verleden vond ik heel erg interessant). Uiteindelijk valt alles op zijn plek. The latest psychological thriller by Louise Candlish, The Only Suspect, is just as exceptional as Our House and The Other Passenger. I devoured this in a couple of days.
