READ AND LOVED

A cat-and-mouse thriller about friends/not friends that’ll hook you fast and never let go. Told in she said/she said narrative with flashbacks that keep you moving at a page-turning pace.

Bookseller Staff, Barnes & Noble

If you're looking for an absorbing, twisty page-turner then this thriller will hit the spot. I struggled to put the book down. I like to be kept guessing but still feel, when the revelations come, that they've been sufficiently breadcrumbed, and Narayanan get this balance exactly right. High enjoyable, with fascinating characters, vivid settings and intriguing investigative detail. Perfect holiday reading.

Reader Review

This is a fantastic book!
I'm a huge fan of unreliable narrators because I can usually find a few anomalies that tell me that's what's happening but that wasn't the case here. And it's a good thing. The back and forth between two POVs and three timelines kept the questions coming and added to the mystery. If you're a fan of mysteries, multiple POVs, or suspense, you have to read this book.

What The Children Know

"This one was really brilliant. I read it straight in an hour, and I didn’t even suspect the twist until just before the reveal."

Reader Review

The mystery at the heart of the story pays off big time. I thoroughly enjoyed the ride.

Cindy Fazzi, Author of Multo

Twisty plot, great voice, and a twist that completely caught me by surprise.

Liz Milliron, Author of the Laurel Highland Mysteries & The Homefront Mysteries

The author is skilled at character development and her characters were flawed and relatable. Making one of the character’s blind added depth.
The end twist was unpredictable with a WOW moment I didn’t see coming until the actual reveal.
The complex storyline, plot twist, and ending will make any reader want to pick up another book by this author.
