totallytales 's review for:

Black Summer by M.W. Craven
5.0

Best crime thriller of the year!

This complex case is played out extraordinarily! With the clues being teased throughout this novel, so intricately planned into the plot and expertly brought together in the mind-blowing finale, Craven is either a writing genius or a criminal mastermind?!

I absolutely love Poe and Tilly's characters this dynamic duo will slip off the pages straight into your heart. Perfectly in-tune despite being polar opposites, Poe a gruff and sarcastic whereas Tilly is a socially awkward genius. It's so refreshing to read characters with no romantic intentions but a fiercely protective bond, they would literally do anything for each other. Keaton is the perfect unnerving psychopath, I had an uneasy feeling about him from the start.

Fast-paced, dark, twisted, mind-blowing and oh so clever! Not-to-be-missed - I implore you to go and grab yourself a copy now, I promise you won't regret it! I'll be counting down the 230 days until I can get my hands on the next Poe and Tilly instalment.

Thanks to Netgalley and the Little Brown Book Group for sending me this in exchange for an open and honest review.
