Unputdownable! – In The Dark by Chris Patchell @chris_patchell

MY REVIEW

In The Dark by Chris Patchell starts out with terror and a sense of wrongness from the opening pages, but I was hooked by the fabulous cover. I love stories that are filled with suspense and the pacing of In The Dark kept me racing through the pages. Unputdownable!

The story is familiar and I love that Chris Patchell is not afraid of killing off characters right and left, making me wonder who will be left standing. The killer is exposed early, but that did nothing to prepare me for the twists and turns, the horrific story of a villain running AMOK, driven, haunted by his past.

Even knowing the shit is coming and to say it’s going to hit the fan doesn’t lessen the gut punch, shock and horror of the evil men do to one another.

Warning:  Begin early in the morning to avoid the dark shadows and give yourself time to finish. I feel once you get into the gritty, you won’t be able to quit!

I won In The Dark by Chris Patchell and the rest is history. She is on my radar and has become a must read author for me.

GOODREADS BLURB

Marissa Rooney stands in her daughter’s empty dorm room, a half-used vial of insulin clutched in her trembling hand. Brooke has been missing for days. Her roommate hasn’t seen her since that night in the bar. And if Marissa has Brooke’s insulin, it means that Brooke does not.

But Marissa isn’t alone in her terror. A phantom from her past is lurking in the shadows, waiting in the night, and holding her family captive…

In the dark.

  1. That cover gives you a sense of either rushing to get away from something behind you or this is a viewpoint of something chasing you. I like this cover!

    • Cover draw me in, especially ones with trees and woods. There is something frightening about them and I like walking through the trees wondering…

    • I love Chris’ writing and I wish she would write faster, but I understand…good things come to those who wait. lol

      • God, I wish I could write faster too, Sherry!! This year I’m working on two books at once. It’s a challenge. We’ll see how I do. And thank you for the awesome review for In the Dark.
