"A fast-paced suspenseful thriller that will keep you up at night!"

Fresh Fiction Review

The Night Market
Jonathan Moore

Reviewed by Patti Loveday
Posted January 17, 2018

Thriller Psychological

THE NIGHT MARKET is a fast-paced thriller that drew me in from page one, and I was hooked till the very end. A compelling thrill ride that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Moore creates a dark world that reminds me of something out of the X- Files. Two homicide detectives, Jenner and Carver, are sent to a suspicious scene. What the encounter is anything but normal. They end up with no memory of the scene or what happened.

Together, they are trying to remember but are drawn deeper into a mysterious mind-control, murder plot that has many twists and turns. Can the neighbor be trusted or is there danger in her eyes? You will second guess everyone has this suspenseful read work its way through all the characters and case leads. Moore has created a frighteningly realistic world that will make you question everything. The characters are truly remarkable and vividly realistic with amazingly detailed backstories, determination, and depth. The setting is something from another world written so clearly that it is easy to visualize. Even though this is a fast-paced thriller, there are many drama- filled twists and turns lurking around each page waiting to be discovered.

THE NIGHT MARKET is a must read thriller and is perfect for anyone who loves a suspenseful novel that will keep you up at night.

SUMMARY

From an author who consistently gives us “suspense that never stops” (James Patterson), a near-future thriller that makes your most paranoid fantasies seem like child’s play. It’s late Thursday night, and Inspector Ross Carver is at a crime scene in one of the city’s last luxury homes. The dead man on the floor is covered by an unknown substance that’s eating through his skin. Before Carver can identify it, six FBI agents burst in and remove him from the premises. He's pushed into a disinfectant trailer, forced to drink a liquid that sends him into seizures, and is shocked unconscious. On Sunday he wakes in his bed to find his neighbor, Mia—who he’s barely ever spoken to—reading aloud to him. He can’t remember the crime scene or how he got home; he has no idea two days have passed. Mia says she saw him being carried into their building by plainclothes police officers, who told her he’d been poisoned. Carver doesn’t really know this woman and has no way of disproving her, but his gut says to keep her close. A mind-bending, masterfully plotted thriller—written in Moore's "lush, intoxicating style" (Justin Cronin)—that will captivate fans of Blake Crouch, China Miéville, and Lauren Beukes, The Night Market follows Carver as he works to find out what happened to him, soon realizing he's entangled in a web of conspiracy that spans the nation. And that Mia may know a lot more than she lets on.
