Review: Your Deepest Fear by David Jackson



After returning home from a trip, Sara Prior listens to the messages on her answering machine, and hears the exact moment that her husband is brutally murdered, after leaving her a confusing final message. Determined to find out what happened, Sara starts putting the clues together, but it soon becomes clear that some things are just better left alone...

This was not for me. It sounded really good, but it didn't live up to my expectations and didn't really draw me in at all. I think part of the reason for this is because this is the fourth book in a series - something that I didn't realise until I was reading the acknowledgements at the end. The fact that this is part of a series is not mentioned anywhere on the cover.

All that being said, this was well-written. It was action-packed from the beginning and full of twists and turns. The tension kept building until the secret was revealed at the end, but again, this didn't really have the massive impact that it should have. I finished it just for the sake of finishing it, to be honest.
