The Waitress

 



The Waitress by Nina Manning-psychological thriller.

Kit is working as a waitress which she loves. She has just won a house in a raffle- a house worth £2 million and some cash to help keep it going. We know she has done something that has changed her life as she mentions an incident and has left her old job and boyfriend behind and not spoken to her parents in a long while- something she wouldn't normally do. She begins hearing noises in the house and already has had a pipe leaking. When things take a turn for the worse, she has her suspicions. Is her past catching up with her or is someone out to get her and why?

OMG! One that put me on the edge of my seat and kept me there. This is brilliantly written and the tension is almost palpable at times- a woman on her own in a new large house hearing things almost made me listen out myself (and I’m not on my own!). Kit is likeable, although perhaps a little naive at times, but in a way this made me like her more as like all of us we each have our vulnerabilities. A clearly thought out plot well executed and a clever one that kept me thinking and on the edge of my seat to the very end. Loved it.
