A Trick of the Mind by Penny Hancock

2.0

This book made me mad. It was written well enough and could have been an interesting story if done correctly.

I mean it was like watching a horror film where the college girl wanders right into the arms of the axe murderer because she opened the door to a stranger.

How did he convince the nurses to lie about his condition? How did she not notice it wasn’t a fresh wound? Why did she not just go ask the guy at the restaurant what he meant? He murders his wife but let’s the dog survive?

Everything Ellie did I felt like screaming at her how stupid she was being.

I read it so quickly because I just had to finish it out of frustration.
