The Narrator is an interesting story but I feel it took just a tad to long to really dig into the story line.
Once it really started to pick up it was over in no time.
This story has a lot of potential but just didn’t quite meet the standard for me.

Really enjoyed this book. Flowed nicely,enjoyed the characters and as always some good twists thrown in. Love this author.

This was my first book by this author. And I loved it. Didn't see the twist coming at all! GREAT Read!

When bestselling author Phillips goes missing some people say she has simply wanted to disappear. However when a manuscript of her works turns up its down to the narrator of the audiobooks to spot that something isn’t quite right. Can she work it out before it’s too late?

I’ve been a big fan of this authors books and this one was just as good as all the others. I mean to start with what bookworm doesn’t like reading about authors and books? I loved the plot of this - it was really twisty and I just couldn’t work it all out. I didn’t actually work the twist out either and I was very shocked. I liked the characters too especially as a lot of them were flawed and I just couldn’t work out who to trust. All in all a good read - one that I’d recommend. I’d like to read more books by this author.

Kim Slater is a particular taste. I enjoy her books. However, they take a bit more out of me than most thrillers. I have to make myself to read some long, convoluted and over-descriptive places. The pace sometimes was not to my liking. But I loved the premise and the base of the story. Characters and what they were going through was identifiable and possible to relate to.
A very worth-while installment fo the fans fo Kim Slater.

Oh my days what an absolutely gripping and thrilling read.
It was simply so exciting that you would hold your breath, unable to stop reading until the twists ended in the incredible conclusion.
A book that will be etched into your memory, forcing you to question everyone around you.
Five Stars.

Another great suspense read from K L Slater. Kept me hooked and wanting more. Definitely recommended for a good fast paced read.

Thank you Netgalley

Wow wow this was utterly nerve wracking with so many twists that I did not see coming. My mind is completely blown. One of the best physcological thrillers that I have ever read!

Another great novel by K L Slater. When writer Philippa goes missing and months later her last novel is discovered, the narrator must figure out when she has gone and who is hiding her. Lots of twists.

I really liked this book! It is about woman who is down on her luck who is selected to be the narrator for a book from a best selling author. While this is the life line she needed, why was she chosen when the author of the book is missing? The narration of the book becomes creepily becomes familiar and it's clear her daughter is in danger.

Philippa a best selling author of the Tower Series, disappears on the night she is widely tipped to get the Smoking Gun Award for Crime Fiction of the year. She has been missing for eight months.

I loved everything about this, the plot and red herrings kept me fully engaged and the ending was epic!!!

Another fantastic book by this wonderful author.

Thank you to Netgalley for my copy in exchange for an honest review.

A good read
Not my favourite by this author
But only because all her other books I have loved
Look forward to her next book
Thanks NetGalley

As is usual for this excellent author, another very good book. Brilliantly written and didn't guess how it would end.

The book started a bit slow then suddenly too fast at the end. I love the behind the scenes look on publishing (my dream job!). I didn’t like the characters though. They were a bit of an exaggeration like too grumpy, too happy, overly friendly, too weird, etc. I didn’t expect the twist but the story was absurd. I gave it an extra 1 star for that twist and it was easy to read.

Thank you Netgalley and Bookouture for the ARC copy of the book.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.
Another great thriller from Slater. Devoured this one in one night.
I really enjoy everything by Slater. Always some surprises and twists.

What a great premise for us thriller and audiobook fans!
I was so hopeful for this one, and I loved it. Read it in a day, it was full of drama and intrigue to keep me interesting and guessing. The ending threw me completely off centre!
I love K L Slater's books, and this was one of her best!
The multiple POVs added an extra dimension and added to the twists as you see the drama play out.
Loved it.

This is my first Slater book and I have become her fan!!

I was glued right from the prologue. The plot by itself, though not unique or unheard of, is well built, and the mystery is revealed piece by piece.

Slater has developed relatable, distinct, and well-developed characters. The multiple POVS added to the drama and made the mystery even more intriguing.

The Narrator packs in all - complicated relationships, a multitude of characters, red herrings, unexpected twists, and a thrilling pace. Overall, a fabulous read. Highly recommended.

Wordsopedia Rating 4/5

K L Slater knocks it out of the park yet again with her nail-biting new chiller, The Narrator.

Being a single mum is tough and nobody knows this better than Eve. Having put her acting dreams on hold for her beloved daughter, Scarlet, Eve is willing to do whatever it takes to give her child the best possible start in life. Putting Scarlet first and herself last is not a problem for Eve, but with money being tight, the single mum finds herself needing to do something to keep food on the table and a roof over both their heads. When a job to narrate a book by missing author Philippa Roberts comes up, Eve jumps at the opportunity, but she soon finds herself realising that truth can be even stranger than fiction…

Taking on the job means leaving Scarlet with her dad and his perfect girlfriend in their perfect home. Eve is completely cut up about this, but this job is the chance she had been waiting for and she is not about to turn this down. As Eve begins narrating the book, she is struck by a strange feeling that there could be a message hidden in this book. As her suspicions increase, Eve wonders whether there might have been a specific reason why she had been chosen to narrate this book that might tie in with Philippa’s disappearance. But just what could Eve’s connection to the missing writer be?

As unusual events begin to unfold, Eve is sure she is being watched and when her room is searched, her fears are intensified. Eve needs to find out what happened to Philippa and when she receives a phone call from her ex’s frantic girlfriend, she realises that if she doesn’t find Philippa soon, then she will never see Scarlet ever again!

K L Slater’s books never fail to keep me up all night and The Narrator is certainly no different. As always, K L Slater has written a tense and heart-stopping thriller full of twists and turns I did not see coming. My heart was in my throat the whole time I was reading this book and I found myself unable to stop myself from devouring The Narrator in a single sitting.

A first-class thriller from one of the genre’s finest, The Narrator is another triumph for K L Slater.

Full of twists and a shocker of an ending. I loved spending an afternoon on the beach reading this!

This is a well written story where the twists and turns had me coming back for more.. I enjoyed how fast paced and engaging this story is.
