A review by natalier3
The Murder of Graham Catton by Katie Lowe
3.0
This book is also marketed as 'Possession' in the US.
This is another mixed one for me.
The plot drew me in straight away. I was hooked. But then the pace slowed massively and dragged at at times. I know I have a high standard for what I call pow-pow-pow thrillers and this didn't deliver on this for me.
The introduction of the true crime podcast Conviction was a great tool, but for me didn't have enough involvement. I am a huge fan of true crime podcasts and I loved the idea as a way of adding up the clues as the story progressed, but I found it didn't really all work together until the finale, and could have been executed a little better.
The main character Hannah was mostly likeable, but the book definitely delivered on the intrigue and the 'is she an unreliable narrator' scenario.
I'm unsure if this book will be memorable for me, as I feel it could have had better execution, and was rather disappointing.
