I am super excited to share my review with you today for The Other Guest by Heidi Perks….Which is out today
She thinks she knows the truth. But what if she’s wrong?
Laila and her husband arrive for a week’s holiday in Greece in desperate need of a reset.
As Laila sits by the pool she finds herself inexplicably drawn to the other family staying in their resort.
Em has no idea who Laila is, or that she has been watching her and her teenage sons and husband so intently.
Five days later their worlds will be blown apart by a horrifying event.
Laila thinks she knows the truth of what happened. But in telling Em what she’s seen, she stands to lose everything she holds dear.
My Thoughts
Heidi sets the scene when she whisks us away to Crete in Greece When we meet Laila and her husband. For a holiday in the sun. but things take a turn with a horrifying event that would certainly be my worst nightmare. We follow a deliciously twisty story that will have you hooked from start to finish piecing the puzzle together.
I have read all of the authors’ books and I have loved all of them but this one is without a doubt my favourite one. This is what a psychological thriller is all about. The suspense is built up page by page as Laila gets more involved and drawn in by another family. It is kept creepy how she is with them in all honesty but it is all part of the story. Does she tell them what she’s seen is the question? Exactly what the title says!
The Other Guest is brilliantly written. It is an absorbing read making you feel right there in Crete the whole time guessing what happened. This is one of those books you need to read for yourself to see what happens. But I thoroughly enjoyed it and I can’t wait to see what Heidi brings us next.
