Knife Edge by Kerry Buchanan- Crime

Nic has been kidnapped for 5 days. She was at a nightclub with some friends

and Colm and the two of them somehow got taken and are now in a derelict

house- she remembers nothing of how they were taken at all. She has various

cuts all over her body that her captor does daily. She manages to escape and

finds her way to a main road. When the police become involved it's clear that

this isn't the first time that this has happened and she finds that DI Ram has

a vested interest. When Nic’s sister Hazel becomes under threat Nic wants

to help the police all she can but also in her own way. Who is after her and

why? I took to this very quickly and found myself engrossed within the

pages. Nic is a likeable character and although does some perhaps irrational

things at times perhaps due to youth and inexperience, her heart is in the

right place. A thriller with lots of twists and turns and just when you think

someone is safe… I won’t spoil anything, lets just say you may end up

reading more / for longer than you intended! A well written, edge of

your seat thriller that I very much enjoyed.

Knife Edge by Kerry Buchanan A MESMERIZING BREAK-OUT CRIME THRILLER SET IN NORTHERN IRELAND FULL OF BREATH-TAKING TWISTS Nic always hated clubbing. She only went out that night because she’d promised a friend. She wakes up, naked and bound in an abandoned cottage in the middle of nowhere. Dappled light comes in through a dirty window. Her body is covered in cuts. Across the room her friend groans in pain. A shadow passes the window. He’s back. He picks up a knife. He begins to cut her friend. In that moment of bloody frenzy, Nic wrenches free and runs. She’s finally safe. But this is only just the beginning. Detectives Asha Harvey and Aaron Birch arrive at the scene hours later. There is no body, there is no sign of the killer. It’s as if it never happened. YOU THINK YOU KNOW HOW IT ENDS? THINK AGAIN.
