Beautiful Ugly
Uk thriller writer, Alice Feeney, pens another propulsive page turner that will stump even the most dedicated armchair detectives. Author Grady Green just received the best news of his life; he is finally a New York Times Bestselling author. When he calls his wife, Abby, to tell her his amazing news, things take an unexpected turn. He hears screeching tires, and his wife tells him there is a body in the road. He warns her not to leave the car and to call the police, but of course his wife doesn’t listen. Abby is never seen again, and his best day has just turned into his worst nightmare. The story picks up a year later; Grady can no longer write, he’s lost his house, his dignity, and he can barely function. When his agent offers him use of a small writing cottage on a secluded Scottish island he jumps at the chance, maybe he can get his life back on track? Once he’s on the island however, he keeps seeing unexplainable things, namely, his missing wife. Brilliantly narrated by Richard Armitage, who expertly ramps up the tension in this twisty thriller with his slick cadence and excellent pacing. Verdict - Feeney fans and thriller lovers will love this ominous mystery where nothing and no one are who they appear to be.

Daisy Darker
Man - this book had some legit twists and turns and I did not see the ending coming. This book has some serious Agatha Christie vibes and readers will quickly pick up on that. Daisy Darker is returning to Seaglass, her grandmothers house that is located on a small island accessible only during the day. Her grandmother has invited her, her two estranged sisters, her divorced parents, and her precious niece to the island for a family reunion. The family hasn't all gathered together in years and Daisy is surprised they are all agreeing to it. But it is her grandmother's 80th birthday and she always believed that she would die on that day. Perhaps everyone thinks she will share the will with them - their grandmother after all, is a famous children's author. One by one the family members start dying gruesome deaths. Each death is accompanied by a messed up rhyme and a VHS - who is killing everyone off and why? It took me a little bit to get into - but once I did I could NOT put it down. Fantastic ending.
