I became a fan of author Alex Finlay back in 2022. If something happens to me is the fourth book that I have read by the author. My motto is when your favorite author publishes a new book you drop everything and read it. Finlay’s books are one of those and put down books. You are completely immersed into, his world. Every single character is well flushed out no matter if they are the main characters or secondary characters. Each and every story takes me to a different location and this book is no different. I’ve never been to France, but after reading this book, I think I want to go. I’m a big fan of thrillers and I look forward to every single solitary book that this author has written. I’m not just saying this either. I really mean it. One thing I like about his writing is that the chapters are short easy to read and the words flow there is never a moment when I am bored reading one of his books. I have rated the novel four stars out of five and will recommend it to readers and mystery novels.

What a ride!
This was my first Alex Finlay book and I loved it!
This book is fast paced, intense and has so many twists!
I really enjoyed the multiple characters and how the story came together at the end. It was so smart!
It was very entertaining, and hard to put it down.
A quick read and gripping!
I highly recommend.
Thank you so much NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

It's a mess not the book problem - the writing just isn't a hit for me and I just don't care about any of the POVs.

I feel like I was pretty hooked and invested in this story right away. The different characters really pulled me in. Though listening to it on audio I occasionally got confused about who’s POV we were in. There were some good twists I didn’t see coming and others I did. Overall I liked the story and how it played out. The epilogue at the end wasn’t super fulfilling for me and I felt a little disappointed there wasn’t more to it.
This was a fun time. The ending didn't quite go in the direction I wanted it to, but it was fun the rest of the time. 4/5
