Lisa Unger did an amazing job on her latest novel, UNDER MY SKIN! It's a thriller that is shocking beyond belief. I enjoy reading this psychological suspense novel that stuck with me days after finishing it. When it comes to reading novels about nightmares you never know what the outcome will be. Unger's story certainly had me filled with anticipation about what was really happening with the main character, Poppy, and the murder of her husband.
A year later and Poppy is still having dreams about her husband's murder. He went for a run one morning in Manhattan's Riverside Park and never comes back. He is found brutally murdered. After his murder, Poppy disappears for a few days and shows up in a red sexy dress, very confused and unable to recall what had happened during that time. Her husband's murder remains a mystery and she is haunted by those days after. Can she trust any of her memories? Feeling as though someone is following her, Poppy is left feeling more confused than before and the dreams seem to unlock some of the confusion. But what can she trust? Who can she trust?
If you love psychological thrillers, then UNDER MY SKIN by Lisa Unger is one that you must pick up. This is an author that I would love to read more novels from. Full of suspense, there's a twist at the end you won't see coming - which is exactly what I love about reading thrillers. Unger has a gift of doing precisely that!
