a very dark but definitely thrilling mystery that kept me flipping those pages, unable to stop and not knowing where it would finally end up!

An intriguing and dark thriller, a great debut novel.

I would like to thank Netgalley and Random House UK, Transworld Publishers for an advance copy of Last Stop Tokyo, the story of Alex's attempt to leave his old, troubled life in London and start afresh in Tokyo.

As the blurb states Alex didn't think that his life could get worse and yet it does. The man was a successful lawyer and yet it his poor judgement and naïveté, both in decision making and choice of friends, that leads him into the bad situations he gets into. It's hardly believable.

I didn't like the characters, there's hardly a decent one among them, never mind likeable so it's hard to get involved in the situations they find themselves in. It all seems a bit contrived and unconvincing.

Last Stop Tokyo is not for me.
