He Started It by Samantha Downing

5.0

I received this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest, independent review.

"No-one knows you better than your family. They know the little things that make you smile. Your proudest achievements. Your darkest secrets. Sure, you haven't always been best friends. But if it seemed as though someone was after you, that you might be in danger, then you'd be on each other's side. Right?"

Such an amazing, dark, twisted plot; I didn't know where it would end. I was left hanging on the edge so many times, not knowing where the book would go, as it was so unpredictable. The book built up to a brilliant, intense ending which stunned me - I did not see that coming for miles!

The main characters, three siblings, are just as dark, mysterious and evil as each other, and well-written. From the start, it's clear they are full of secrets and not honest with each other, or honest people at all.

The pace is gripping and addictive; it's one of the best thrillers I've read in a long time.
