A Thrilling Ride with a Price to Pay
summarizeEditor's Summary
This book had me hooked from the start, but be warned: the twist at the end is a major letdown. The story follows Susan Lentigo, a mother driven by a singular focus on justice for her daughter's murder. I read it in digital format, which was a game-changer for me - I could adjust the font size as needed. While it's a real page-turner, it's also emotionally draining, especially for mothers. I'd recommend it with a caveat, as the emotional toll of the story is intense and the twist at the end is a major letdown.

A Thrilling Ride with a Price to Pay
I dove headfirst into the world of online reviews for this book after seeing all the buzz. I managed to snag a copy of The Necklace by Matt Witten with a promo code I found on the Litres website.
The book's premise really caught my eye - 20 years of waiting for justice to be served for a daughter's murder. The story centers around Susan Lentigo, a mother driven by a singular focus.
Spoiler Alert: The twist at the end was a major letdown - it basically gives away the whole ending.
Susan Lentigo had spent two decades waiting for the man responsible for her daughter's death to face justice. Was he a monster, a psychopath, or just a guy who lost control? When he finally passed away, would Susan find closure, or was someone else to blame for her daughter's tragic fate?
I read this book in digital format, which I really liked because I could adjust the font size as needed - it made a huge difference in my reading experience.
This book is a real page-turner, but it's also emotionally draining. I'd recommend it with a caveat for mothers, as the emotions are intense and might be tough to handle. I devoured the book in just two days, desperate to find out what happened.
The book jumps back and forth between the present day and 20 years ago, but it never gets confusing or distracting. The plot is well-structured and easy to follow.
The main character is really relatable, and I found myself invested in her story from start to finish. It's heartbreaking to think about losing a child, and the author does a great job of conveying those emotions.
At the end, I saw a lot of positive reviews from other authors about The Necklace.
This book is perfect for fans of psychological thrillers that explore the complexities of human choice and the pursuit of truth. Sometimes, even the law gets it wrong, and we often make mistakes in our own lives. But... you'll have to read the book to find out who the real villain is.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good thriller. And, I think a movie adaptation would be awesome - the story is really relevant to our times.
I'd give this book 4 out of 5 stars. It's a thrilling ride that will keep you on the edge of your seat, but be prepared for a heavy emotional impact.
