Famous Last Words by Gillian McAllister

If you like unreliable narrators, this one is for you. Having said that, it takes a while to realise that Cara, the protagonist, is not to be trusted. Cara, a successful author, is under pressure to write her 30th book and when she receives a threatening note, she decides to turn fact into fiction. This is a suspenseful novel although I struggled a little with the believability of the vendetta from her adolescence. Valerie writes great psychological thrillers, and whilst this isn’t my favourite of her novels, you’ll definitely be in for a breathless, twisty read.
