Kill for Me, Kill for You by Steve Cavanagh
4.5
4.5 stars!
A slow start that ended up gaining incredible speed! Insanely well-plotted and clever, with two major twists that I didn’t see coming.
This is very plot-heavy. There isn't much character development, especially considering there were so many different characters and POVs. Thankfully, what it lacks in character development, it more than makes up for in a massively entertaining, fast-paced plot. The chapters a fairly short, and there are small cliffhangers at the end of each one, which kept me eager to keep reading.
For what it's worth, it was obvious while reading that this book was written by a UK author. There were a few things that stuck out to me, but mainly grammar and a misunderstanding of New York/US culture. Most notably, there were quite a few references to "Thanksgiving Eve" as though it's a day almost as important as Thanksgiving Day. It's nitpicky, but it did distract me from the story.
Highly recommend picking this one up! A brilliant thriller. I'll be picking up more from this author!
