Magpie Lane by Lucy Atkins
4.0

This was tense and so cleverly written. The way that Atkins writes makes it appear effortless.

At times I wondered whether this would turn out to be purely a domestic thriller, or whether it would be a horror or have some supernatural aspects to it.

I was tense all the way through and just dying to know what would happen. I doubted so many of the characters at different points too

They’re all written so well and each character is complex enough to feel tangible but not so developed that they’re hard to keep up with.

I’d highly recommend this to anyone who loves suspense and thrillers! Fantastic!
