S.L. McInnis’ suspense debut, FRAMED, is packed with surprises in every chapter. You will not be able to put down this thriller as it keeps you glued to your seat in anticipation! I am in awe with this amazing storyline that has twists and turns throughout. McInnis wrote a winner here as the ending is one, I did not even imagine as I read.
Beth Montgomery hasn’t seen her college roommate, Cassie Ogilvy, since school. When Cassie calls her up out of the blue it is a big surprise, but Beth does not know what mysteries her old college friend has been into. She welcomes her so much so that it seems that Cassie is making herself at home with Beth’s husband as well. Just how far will Cassie go? Cassie tells Beth about her life, or that part she wants her to know. But something is unsettling to Beth about her old best friend. Little does she knows the secrets within.
Across town there was a drug deal gone bad and five people found dead. Beth hears about it but doesn’t think twice or even suspects anything unusual. Then Cassie disappears and Beth has no idea the secrets that have been kept from her all along.
FRAMED is a must to read for any thriller fan! S.L.McInnis’ novel will have you stunned by the end. A mind twisting conclusion that you will be intrigue by for days. I cannot wait for the next novel to see how she tops this one!
Beth Montgomery seems to have the perfect life: a beautiful house in the hills above Los Angeles, a handsome, ambitious husband, and plans of starting a family. So it doesn't occur to her to worry when the news breaks of a quadruple homicide across town, a botched drug deal that leaves an undercover officer among the dead. Beth certainly would never think to tie the murders to the sudden reappearance in her life of wild, sexy Cassie Ogilvy, the estranged best friend she hasn't seen since they were college roommates.
As Cassie confidently settles into Beth's new life, making herself comfortable not only in Beth's guestroom but with her husband as well, it becomes increasingly clear that her old friend has a lot to hide. But it isn't until a shocking late-night phone call, and Cassie's even more startling disappearance, that Beth begins to understand that her world, as she knew it, is gone forever.
Unfurling over the span of three fraught, heart-pounding days, McInnis's masterful suspense debut is fast-paced and diabolically unpredictable--a fresh, surprising, and powerfully smart twist on the traditional thriller.
