Finding Grace
by Loretta Rothschild
This book had me gasping to myself on public transit while I listened to the audiobook version read by Fiona Button, who proved to be a delightful narrator. While motherhood-centered thrillers aren’t always my favorite, the premise of this one was unique enough to keep me interested throughout.
I was immediately taken in by the cover art and the intriguingly vague plot synopsis for this domestic thriller debut by Loretta Rothschild. I’m afraid my review will have to be just as vague as the plot synopsis because I would hate to reveal basically any details about the story and risk depriving any reader of the carefully plotted, deliciously twisty journey they’ll take while reading this unique thriller. I highly recommend going in blind to preserve the suspense.
Tom is our dubious protagonist. He’s deeply engulfed in grief, but he makes some absolutely insane decisions throughout the novel that make it somewhat difficult to root for him. There are a few instances of too-coincidental and slightly melodramatic occurrences to further the narrative and a TON of instances where the characters could have saved themselves a lot of grief by communicating better (or at all).
Overall, this was a juicy and enthralling thriller that I recommend listening to on audio!
Thank you to NetGalley and MacMillan Audio for the opportunity to be an early listener to this upcoming title!
