Possession by Katie Lowe
4.0
“In the end, the only person you can’t outrun is yourself.”
Thank you to Katie Lowe, St. Martin’s Press and Netgalley for the e-ARC of Possession in exchange for an honest review!
Ten years ago Hannah’s husband was murdered in their bed. And she can’t remember what happened. The police charged a stranger with the murder, and Hannah packs up her life and flees London with her young daughter to start a new life.
But now the popular true-crime podcast Conviction has decided to make Hannah’s husband’s murder the focus of their next season. Conviction is convinced that the man convicted for the crime is innocent… and that Hannah did it.
Katie Lowe’s writing of Hannah’s unravelling as each podcast episode airs is masterful. You can just feel Hannah’s grip on reality and who she can trust slipping. From the very beginning we know that Hannah has a secret about that night and as the book progressed I found myself questioning Hannah’s guilt or innocence right along with her.
If you’re a fan of psychological thrillers with an unreliable narrator, then I would recommend picking this one up.
cw: domestic abuse; emotional abuse; psychological abuse/manipulation
