Can You See Her-S.E Lynes -Psychological thriller
"What would you do if no-one was watching"
Rachel is being questioned by the police after a series of knife attacks having handed
herself in. She feels as if she has been almost invisible and that she was passing others
and them not noticing her whatever she did. Her children don’t notice her and her
husband takes her for granted. We get statements from some of her friends and family
who say she has been going through a rather odd time but not to the extent of trying
to murder someone. She has been more than aware of recent crime and has been
keeping a file with the aim of handing it to her local MP to do something about it. This
is an usual read (in a good way) in that the plot is both current and in the past and
that much is from Rachels perspective put to the police. She “says” something but
not sure if she has actually said it  out loud so we are not sure how much the police
are getting. OMG! A clever, well crafted read that kept me both reading and
thinking. A carefully constructed plot with a NPD character.
Wow! It threw me, it surprised me. Brilliant.
