This book is an utter treat - it’s rare to find a psychological thriller that is so engaging it’s genuinely an effort to put it down! 5 stars without question. Alice is the victim of some fairly vicious stalking - the escalation (and oddities of which) ensure a suspense filled read. The backstory of the stalker is interwoven and told in an equally engaging manner which is a refreshing rarity in itself (I often find myself skimming over those!) Delighted that just as I thought I had the storyline sussed an epic twist was delivered - genius! Thank you to Net Galley, publisher and author for the absolute pleasure of an advance read of this gem!

“I am going to use cheese wire on you”. First sentence. There. Totally hooked up. After receiving that threatening phone call, journalist Alice Henderson realises that that‘s not an isolated event, and that every Wednesday she gets a threat from an unknown stalker. As violence escalates we can feel the real sense of fear the main character is experiencing.

“I will make you pay” is a fast paced psychological thriller, and although PI Matthew Hill and DI Melanie Sanders make a comeback from previous books (nice surprise there, love the chemistry between these two) it can be read as a standalone.

This was my third book by the author and the one I enjoyed the most.

I really loved this book!! It had so many twists and turns. It kept me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next!! This was my first book by this Author, and it won’t be the last!! Quick read!! Highly recommended!! You won’t be disappointed!!

Sorry but this book wasn't for me, couldn't really get into the story line, couldn't get on with the characters and I was glad when I had got to the end.

Thank you to Netgalley and Amazon Publishing for giving me the opportunity to read this book.

Well what can I say... after abandoning J.P. Delaney's last book, "The Perfect Wife", I tried my luck once again with Teresa Driscoll. I've already read "I Am Watching You" which I had to put down before the second half of the novel, as I found it to be lackluster and tedious as well as unoriginal. This one has a common story premise too, a young woman who starts receiving messages from an unknown person who seems eager to cause her harm and so the plot begins to unravel, the main mystery lying in the possible reasons that the anonymous sender might have. As usual, the answer can be found only if one delves into the protagonist's past which is full of secrets.

Unfortunately, I had to stop reading "I Will Make You Pay" after the first third of the novel, as the story was dragging on and the plot was almost non-existent. It is a typical novel of a specific crime fiction sub-genre, slanting towards psychological thriller. The characters are bland, a fact that adds to the overall mundane feeling that this book exudes. I couldn't identify with any of the main characters while the story left me cold. Actually, I can honestly say that I couldn't care less for what happens next in the tedious plotline, thus I decided not to waste any more of my precious time on this book and move on to something better.

It goes without saying, that this is strictly my personal opinion and nothing more. I am sure that there are many readers who will enjoy "I Will Make You Pay", especially those who are not so demanding when choosing a crime novel. It is the sad truth that the right chemistry between the author and the reader is sometimes very hard to reach due to the subjective nature of the literal taste.

An author I’m very familiar with so expected good things and she delivered. Enjoyed the different character chapters, as they are something that always grabs my attention and keeps me wanting more. Never guessed the outcome and had a few different people in mind.

3.5 stars rounded up.

I Will Make You Pay is a light thriller about a woman whose life’s turned upside down after receiving a threatening phone call. The story is well-paced and the characters are well developed, especially within the Him parts - where my interest mainly lay. I liked the writing and the police procedural aspect, which helped the storyline to run smoothly.

There were a few shocks I absolutely hadn't seen coming. I didn’t find the ending to be completely mind-blowing but it is definitely satiating, especially for readers who are new to the genre.
There’s a dash of predictability that creeps up within the final chapters of the book, leaning more towards the emotional aspect of the strong bond between journalist Alice and her mother.

What I still memorize from this read is the fear that was instilled in our protagonist, and what it was like for her to live with that dreadful sense of terror.
I admired the fact that the author, like the protagonist herself, is a reporter. And she drew inspiration from one of her own life experiences. I'm definitely curious to see what this author writes next.

Alice a journalist is sent a threatening note that she will be cut by a cheese wire, but this is not the first note she has received and strangely it always occurs on a Wednesday. After several more threats, her husband Tom employs Matthew a private investigator to keep her safe and discover who the culprit is.

Mathew discovers that Alice is keeping her own secrets, is the stalker something to do with her past or has she upset someone regarding an article she has written.

The story alternates between the present time and the past. In the past we are introduced to a small boy living with his gran,he loves his gran and hates the fact that she has to leave him on his own one night a week, so that she can work in a care home. These chapters kept me engrossed and guessing what happened to this little chap!!

This is a very gripping book with plenty of twists and red herrings along the way. I constantly changed my mind who the stalker was.

Beautifully written with a mixture of suspense and a heart wrenching story of love for a mother who does not have much time left. When Alice describes the love she feels for her mother I could not help but tear up, at the strong bond between them.

Thank you to Netgalley for my copy in exchange for a review.

Wow an intense thriller that kept me gripped right from page one until the last! Alice is being stalked and hasn't a clue by who and why, it always happens on a Wednesday. As a back story someone tells their story of why they hate Wednesdays, the two are tied together but how and why. Matthew is a private investigator trying to help Alice along with Mel the detective.
Can they find out who is stalking Alice before it's too late!!
A great suspense thriller.

A gripping thriller twist turns characters that jump off the pages .A true page turner mystery writing at its best.#netgalley#amazonuk

This is what all other psychological thrillers aspire to be. Teresa Driscoll, you had me at “cheese wire”. Every moment of the novel held this mesmerizing tension that was only abated by the pretense that the plot would reach its pinnacle sooner than later. It was fast paced, creepy, and magnificent. A must read! 5 stars

Thank you to #NetGalley for this ARC of #IWillMakeYouPay, which I voluntarily read and reviewed. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I really enjoyed this book. Alice is taunted by a stalker who becomes more threatening and closer with each passing week but Alice has a secret of her own....... This story was well written and kept me reading eager to find out who the stalker was. As with all good mysteries there is somewhat of a plot twist and the perp is closer to her than she could ever imagine. A+

I'm a big fan of Teresa Driscoll and always look forward for her new books, and this one is no exception.
This is a gripping psychological mystery thriller with a twisty plot and a great unpredictable ending.

Alice Henderson is a successful journalist, on an ordinary Wednesday she receives an anonymous chilling phone call threatening her. At first she dismisses the whole thing as a nasty prank, but each Wednesday the phone calls keep coming and the threats escalates targeting not only Alice but her family as well.

The police are unable to find a lead, and Alice's boyfriend insists they hire a private investigator. From there it's a race against the clock to find the stalker and discover his/her motivations, and what a ride that was.

Thanks Netgalley, Amazon Publishing UK, and author Teresa Driscoll for a chance to review this book.

This book was very well written. Nice and easy to read and flowed well. Had me on the edge of my seat. Wondering which way it was going to go. Great mystery can’t beat it.

Loved reading this book, I usually know by the first page if I am going to enjoy and finish it and that I did within a couple of days. Without letting too much information away, I loved the plot and the characters, I have already googled Teresa Driscoll so I can read everything else she has written. Thrilling, from start to finish.

What a great thriller. Couldn't put it down once I started. I'll definitely being reading more from this author. This book was so good that I didn't know what was going to happen next. You think you know, but you're wrong. Great book.

Thank you Netgalley, the author and publisher for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is a really well written novel that draws you in from the first page. Told form different perspectives, it helps tell the story, which is a solid read.

Alice takes a chilling phone call one Wednesday and it quickly becomes apparent that she has the unwanted attention of someone.
I loved the way the story was told from different perspectives and kept me hooked and intrigued throighout. My first Theresa Driscoll book but it will not be my last. Thank you to netgalley for the pre-release copy.

What a great read!!!
Thank you to Netgalley and Teresa Driscoll for the opportunity to read the ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
The book had a fast pace and definite thrill to it.
The Author with out a doubt made you feel the protagonists emotions throughout the book.
I thought I had the ending figured out but as I read more I changed my mind only to be surprised in
the end that I had it right all along!
This was my second book read by this author and won't be my last!

There are some books that give you that Goldilocks feeling of being ‘just right’ and this was exactly that for me. Matthew Hill is a really great character and I feel like everyone needs a friend like him. Having a stalker is a horrid enough concept but to have him only active on Wednesdays did seem to add to the tension. There was a particular scene involving a motorcycle that will definitely stick in my mind. Highly recommended
