"A dream vacation goes terribly wrong..."

Fresh Fiction Review

The Suspect
Fiona Barton

Reviewed by Teresa Cross
Posted January 9, 2019

Thriller Psychological

An incredible thriller, that is part of the Kate Waters series that can also be read alone by Fiona Barton, THE SUSPECT is gut gripping of any parent's worst nightmare. Reporter Kate Waters travels to Bangkok to research the story of the year: two young women go on the vacation of a lifetime but end up missing. I love the writing style of this psychological thriller, and while it was the first novel I've read by Fiona Barton, I certainly want to read more. The characters feel real, making it easy to forget you are just reading a story. When Alex and Rosie travel to Thailand, they expect an adventure they've only dreamed of... however, the trip did not turn out as they hoped, leaving their parents with unanswered questions about what truly happened to their daughters. After the parents do not receive a scheduled phone call, Alex and Rosie are declared missing and no one can give them answers. Kate Waters begins her investigation knowing this will be a great story to tell, but she's surprised to find that she may be connected to the families of the missing girls, which turns her whole life upside down. How will this story change not only the life of the families forever but Kate's as well? There are many things that Barton puts in her story that you do not see coming, leaving you in total shock throughout. You will feel real emotions for the parents, as they face their worst fears. THE SUSPECT by Fiona Barton will be a must read for the New Year! You will not be disappointed.

SUMMARY

The New York Times bestselling author of The Widow returns with a brand new novel of twisting psychological suspense about every parent’s worst nightmare...

When two eighteen-year-old girls go missing in Thailand, their families are thrust into the international spotlight: desperate, bereft, and frantic with worry. What were the girls up to before they disappeared?

Journalist Kate Waters always does everything she can to be first to the story, first with the exclusive, first to discover the truth—and this time is no exception. But she can’t help but think of her own son, whom she hasn’t seen in two years, since he left home to go travelling.

As the case of the missing girls unfolds, they will all find that even this far away, danger can lie closer to home than you might think…
