What a fantastic crime thriller/suspense read. From the first page, the story hooked me to the story and I wanted to find out more. What happened and why would a person do such a thing... and there the story unfolded as the layer was peeled and Gray reveals in just the right time pieces of the puzzle in this wonderful story.
The pacing was quick and the plot moved the story well through the alternating story line that was told between the present timeline and the past.
The story was centered around young Daniel McIntyre whose childhood innocence was taken from him in a horrific and traumatic way, compounded by the death of his mother and a fractured relationship with his father. As Daniel craved to be accepted and loved, he befriended a young Pakistani man, Waqar, who took advantage of their friendship, and turned it into recruiting Daniel to become a radicalized jihadist. Gray’s writing was solid and was able to maintain that thrilling element throughout the story line, that kept me turning those pages. Gray was able to write an amazing cast of characters including Daniel’s father Tom whose ordeal and pain was palpable. The characters were realistic and faulted to their demise.
The story was an amazing psychological thriller that was disturbing, utterly suspenseful and highly addicting!! I really enjoyed this book very much!! Don’t let the cover scare you to thinking this is a horror read. It is not, though it had violent elements from the terrorist activities, it is a crime thriller/suspenseful read.
