Being a big fan of Only The Innocent and The Back Road, I was incredibly excited to get my hands on a copy of Rachel Abbott’s latest book, Sleep Tight.It’s Tom Douglas’s third appearance in one of Abbott’s novels and, although his personal story follows on, the book can be read as a standalone. The story gets off to an eerie start and within two or three chapters you’ll be searching for answers to about a hundred questions, as you begin to feel an iron grip of tension that doesn’t ease up until the end. I found myself totally consumed by the many twists and turns, unable to imagine how the police would solve the case in front of them.I’m going to refrain from talking about the characters, except to say they play their parts perfectly, and I will also not reveal anything about the plot. This is not to be annoyingly vague but because I feel that even the smallest hint could ruin this delightfully complex story.So, if you like being thrown into the midst of a thrilling mystery then this is definitely the read for you. Rachel Abbott will have you tied up in knots and reading until the close will be the only way of untangling yourself.Reviewed by Charlotte Foreman on behalf of BestChickLit.com.
