The Death and Life of Eleanor Parker by Kerry Wilkinson
4.0
The story begins with Ellie/Eleanor Parker waking up on the river side with no recollection of how she came to be at the river. Eleanor is dead and those close to her don’t realise, but Eleanor needs to know what happened to her that night and who is responsible for her death.
Ellie is now trying to solve who killed her and if it has anything to do with the death of her boyfriends girlfriend last year. Who can she trust? She questions all her friendships and her family. Ellie is a fantastic character and I really enjoyed hearing the story unfold from her perspective. She has a great sense of humour with great teenager vibes with sarcasm and confusion.
This is the first novel I have read by Kerry Wilkinson and I really enjoyed her fast paced and style of writing. This was a very different story from what I was expecting when I read the blurb, it was a great page turning mystery with elements of science fiction. The twists that the story took were well placed and made this book so pleasant to read.
