Ready or Not by Alex Lake

 



Description from Goodreads:

"Ready or not…here I come

Alice and Tom Sark seem to have it all. The perfect marriage, the perfect baby, the perfect life. And now Alice, an up-and-coming journalist, starts investigating a story which could make her career – a serial killer operating in her hometown.
 
But soon, the case starts to hit a little too close to home. Alice and Tom begin fighting all the time. Their beautiful baby daughter, normally so calm, just won’t stop crying.
 
Then the serial killer turns their attention to Alice. And the nightmare truly starts…"

This is a deliciously creepy and gripping read made all the better as it's partly set in my neck of the woods!

A serial killer is on the loose murdering people at random and the police have no leads whatsoever.  Tom and Alice are happily married with a beautiful baby girl but the cracks begin to show; they are exhausted by a lack of sleep, bruising begins to appear on their baby and Alice starts writing about the serial killer.  As Alice becomes more embroiled in her story, it appears the killer has her in his sights.

Written from different perspectives and with timelines from the past which smoothly lead into the present, this is a fast paced and thrilling read where the tension builds and builds right until the end.  Each and every character is strong and adds something to the story.

I have read some of Alex Lake's previous books and have enjoyed each and every one of them and I will certainly be looking out for the next.

Thank you to HarperCollins UK / HarperFiction and NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest, unbiased and unedited review.
