HER HUSBAND HAS BEEN MURDERED AND SHE'S THE ONLY SUSPECT. WHAT SHOULD SHE DO?
Hired by companies to break into buildings and hack security systems, Jack and her husband Gabe are the best penetration specialists in the business. But after a routine assignment goes horribly wrong, Jack arrives home to find her husband dead.
It soon becomes clear that the police have only one suspect in mind – her.
Jack must go on the run to try and clear her name and to find her husband’s real killer. But who can she trust when everyone she knows could be a suspect? And with the police and the killer after her, can Jack get to the truth before her time runs out?
An adrenaline-fueled thriller from international bestseller and Richard & Judy pick, Ruth Ware, described as ‘one of the best thriller writers around today’ (Independent).

Not one of her best
I’m a big fan of the author and have got pretty much all her library.
This however I wish I hadn’t bothered with. I’m not sure where this sits chronologically in her canon, but it suffered from an unusual (for her) severe lack of pace and tension.
In main I think that was due to the most repetitive narrative I’ve ever read. More padding than DFS, and interminably descriptive prose that just dragged, and dragged…….and then dragged a bit more.
It read like a book where the author came up with a premise but then got bored with it, so just cobbled together the 12/15 relevant scenes and then just found ways to up the word count enough to call it a novel.
Give it a miss.

Not terrible but not great
I found the first part a bit tedious. Obviously trying to set the scene of the relationship between the main character and her husband, but I felt it was very cringe worthy at times and it really put me off. The narration was at times very over the top too.
As the story got going it was listenable, the ending was ok but I generally didn’t enjoy the book.

Americanisms everywhere
Not RW’s best, in my opinion. A bit predictable in some ways, explain-stuff-the-reader-might-not-know-out-loud trope fully intake for the code/hacking stuff, and I didn’t enjoy all the male characters having the same dumb-down “London” accent.
The surprise to me was the number of Americanisms that were in there almost incidentally (cop, nightstand); for a story apparently set in the UK, they felt jarring, and whilst that’s a small thing, it’s the small things that really affect how smoothly the story flows.
This one didn’t really flow, Act III just sort of collapsed.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book
Roller coaster ride from start to finish ! I was hooked. Ruth Ware is a brilliant author, she brings the atmosphere to life in all her books. Great storyline, great characters just a great novel. Yet again much praise for Imogen Church - an amazing narrator of Ruth Ware novels

Another great story!
Love all Ruth Wares books, and this was no exception.. my only criticism being that Jac swore too much, I’m not a prude but found it to be a bit cringy at times!

Another blinder from Ruth Ware!
Once again I couldn't stop listening to this story. As usual, excellently performed and characterised by Imogen Church. Ruth Ware has thought of everything in this story and added in twists and turns to keep you guessing. I can't get enough of her brilliant storytelling. My only problem now is that I have listened to all her books and have got to wait until 18th July for the next one!

Predictable plot but nice suspense
As other reviews have pointed out, this is not Ware’s best book and the audio performance of Imogen Church somewhat annoyingly overly dramatic at times. If there was a price for an audio performance with at least 50 different loud variations on the pronunciation of the word “fuck”, it would go to her. There is also, btw, an inordinate number of “flips” and “lurches” of the protagonist’s stomach and painfully long (pun intended) of a specific wound. Also for the first time in my experience of Ruth Ware’s stories, it is a little too easy to guess who the culprit is which takes a bit of the mystery away. So all in all there are aspects of the book which makes it feel long winded and slightly repetitive.
With all this being said, Ware is still an eminent writer of suspense stories and the whole fugitive part of the novel is very gripping and still worth a listen and a few sleepless nights.
