Bullied, overlooked and under-appreciated, Lissa McColl learns at an early age to do very bad things. As a nurse, she is respected and valued for the first time in her life. But Lissa hates her job and the selfish, rude and inconsiderate people she has to deal with. But being underestimated in this job had its advantages. Lissa can get close to people, find out their secrets… sometimes with deadly results...
This is by no means what I expected!! It is three parts, and the way I was misdirected was great! The little sting at the end was great and I really didn’t expect the story to go the way it did.
I was expecting more of a crazy story with Lissa and her way of life and whilst we did see her dark side it wasn’t her that we should be watching!!
I am worried about what happens after the end! Will it all be ok? Or is history going to repeat itself? To say that Lissa is slightly unhinged is an understatement lol.
I enjoyed the tale of cat and mouse that no one knew was being played. It was great to see characters unwittingly being watched and processed.
I thought the audiobook was brilliantly narrated by Rose Robinson! She played it so well with Lissa and her investigation, her unraveling, and then her dark side!! Jeez!!
The beginning was dark, very dark and I expected that to follow through but it did become a bit sepia as we carried on, not that it’s a bad thing, we need a little bit of light. But don’t get excited, this was not a sunshine book at all! It was a slow burn to an unexpected ending and one I want answers to after those words – The End!! I am still thinking about it now!
Until the next time xxx
