The perfect place

When Ruth arrives at a cliff-top cottage on the Irish coast overlooking the Atlantic, the last thing on her mind is murder. She and her best friend Maura are spending a month there and she intends to make the most of it.

The perfect crime

But then Ruth wakes up alone, covered in someone else’s blood. Something terrible has happened, and Maura is gone, as if she’d never been there at all.

The perfect witness

Ruth is a suspect, but she’s also the key to finding out what happened. She’s eager to help. But is her version of events the whole story?

Or is the truth everything she didn’t say?

Everything She Didn’t Say is about a woman who named Ruth who wakes up covered with someone else’s blood and her roommate, Maura is missing. Ruth and Maura moved into a cottage near the cliffside to spend a month there but murder was the last thing on Ruth’s mind. Because Ruth was covered in blood, she was the main suspect yet, she recounts the whole story about her life and how she met Maura. But is she hiding parts of the story?

This novel was quiet unputdownable and page turner. I was hooked to the story from the start till the end. There were so many twists and turns, and it was quite enjoyable to read as well. The question of whether Ruth actually killed someone or if her roommate was a psychopathic killer was a burning question in the reader’s mind. I like the characters, particular the two detectives, Bill and Fin and I like the fact that there was a small romance developed between Ruth and Bill briefly.

Overall, this was a great thriller, unputdownable and a page turner. Worth 4.5 stars and looking forward to read more books from this author.

Many thanks to Harper Collins for the invite and Netgalley for providing ARC. The review is based on my honest opinion only.
