The Devil's Work by Mark Edwards
5.0
Another first rate thriller from Mark Edwards! Absolutely could not put this one down. Hard to give a comprehensive review without spoilers, so here are just my thoughts.
The events of the book don't quite make sense at first, but he does an excellent job weaving together past and present, keeping you guessing until the final chapter. Just when I thought I had it figured out, I was thrown for another curveball. The writing style keeps you wanting to know more, more, more. I was hooked from chapter one.
Characters, while not necessarily likeable, are flawed and relatable, and I most definitely felt for Sophie's plight. Some of the events are truly creepy and disturbing. For once, I can't name one thing I didn't like about this book.
Thankfully, there is a (s0rt of) happy ending, and almost everything is explained. I've already read Follow You Home, and loved it as well. I'll be looking for Mr. Edwards' other works, and have a feeling I'll be a fan of his as long as he keeps writing.
