What a shocker! The Narrator is a gripping and twist filled read with a reveal which knocked my socks off! WOWZA! I did not see that coming!
Bestselling author, Philippa Roberts has been missing for eight months. She was last seen while preparing to accept a writing award. She was at the top of her game and had a strong fan base. Everyone was shocked when she went missing without a trace.
Eve has narrated all of Philippa’s books. She has been down on her luck after her husband left her for one of her colleagues. Now a single mother with a five-year-old daughter, Eve has moved back in with her mother. When she receives a call from a publishing company informing her that Philippa’s wife has found a hidden manuscript, she happily agrees to narrate it. The only downside, she needs to leave her daughter with her mother.
Hugo, Eve’s ex-husband has other plans and while Eve is in London, he takes their daughter to his home with his pregnant girlfriend. As if that isn’t enough stress, Eve begins narrating and wonders if there could be hidden messages in the script.
This was a gripping, twist filled read with a jaw dropping shocker. This was a page turner for me and by the end, I could not turn the pages fast enough. I did not see that reveal coming and I love when that happens. This one kept me on my toes and fully invested in the plot. Another fantastic book by Slater!
