And here I was, feeling awfully smug, thinking that I've got all figured out way before the end of the book.
Guess what? I got it all wrong! I thoroughly enjoyed the story and the ending left me with my mouth hanging open. Minus one star because the protagonist Alice didn't fully come to life for me and remained kind of unapproachable.
Thanks to NetGalley and Amazon Publishing UK for this eBook!

I did not enjoy this book. About 100 pages in, I’m giving up. The plot seemed so interesting yet nothing has really happened yet. And the chapters go back and forth between characters that I forget who is who so I lost interest.

Thank you NetGalley for an advanced copy. Just wasn’t my cup of tea.

5 stars from me

I have read a few books by this author now and think this may be her best yet. The thought of being stalked in this was is absolutely terrifying, and it was a very believable fear from the main character Alice. Great to see the appearance of Matthew and Melanie from the previous books, and I really loved how the story built. Really kept me guessing.

When Alice a journalist recieves a sinister note threatening her life her husband hires a private investigator to track down the culprit, secrets start to immerge surrounding Alice, secrets she has kept from her husband... are these the reason for the threats or an article she has written that has upset someone

⭐⭐⭐⭐.5 omg mindblown! @tkdriscoll_author you did it again! I devoured this one. I could NOT figure it out and I think I was just as shocked as Alice was when she figured it out!! Every fan of reading a psychological thriller should pick up a copy of i will make you pay on October 10. Thank you netgalley for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.

My first time readung this author. The book kept my attention throughout. I wasn't expecting the twust at the end.

Well executed thriller - not hugely earthshattering but engrossing and fast-paced just the same with fleshed out and believable characters. Certainly kept my interest and laid several false trails which had me going for a while! I'd certainly recommend it as an entertaining read and I'd like to thank NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC. This was the first book by Teresa Driscoll that I've read and I'm looking forward to reading more by this author.

Teresa Driscoll has always been at the top of my list when it comes to psychological thrillers.
Alice Henderson is a journalist, who one night gets a threatening phone call.
Is it a hoax, or does it represent something scarf
As the days go by more and more threats begin to appear
Will Alice be punished or will she be able to find out what is going on
Read it and find out

From the very first sentence I was intrigued and needed to know what in the world was going on. The story bounces back and forth between the perspective of the main character and their stalker. I couldn’t wait to find out what happened in the stalker’s life that caused them to be the way they are. I enjoyed the main characters and got drawn into their lives. Good story that I read in a day.

Excellent psycho thriller! Fast past read, keeping reader intrigued. I could not predict the ending.. Would highly recommend this book.

Theresa Driscoll brings us a story that has mystery, drama and stark fear. This story gives insight into how life altering the disturbing act of being stalkied is. Someone is stalking Alice. At first she missed the signals however, when a call comes into her at work saying though a voice distortion machine,"I will use a cheese wire on you" it shakes her to the core. It's on a Wednesday and for the last few Wednesday's she has had some strange things happen. Things she just wrote off as curious. This latest one leaves no doubt. Why is someone so obsessed and angry at her? Could it be a co-worker, someone she angered in a article she wrote or someone from her secret past. A past even her boyfriend doesn't know. There is only so much the police can do and Alice fluctuates between anger and absolute fear. She wants to be brave enough to go about her daily life. The newspaper she writes for isnt taking a chance they make her take time off. Her boyfriend wants her to move in with him and he wants to hire protection one day a week when the stalker typically hits. Alice wants to do normal activities but as more and more happens she is forced into an existence of watching over her shoulder and staying where she is protected. Can the stalker be caught before he does more? The story is a roller coaster ride of ups and downs for Alice. Angrily going out to finish stories she started then being forced back into being very afraid and allowing protection. But even with protection she isn't safe. Sometimes I wanted to shake Alice and say don't do that or good choice! Theresa has a knack for putting you into the story. I liked this book. I liked the charature of the private eye they hired to protect Alice and find the stalker a lot. Alice made me mad at times there is only so brave you should be. There was an interesting twist at the end. Thank you NetGalley, the author and publisher for allowing me to read this ARC this is my honest opinion.

Another page turning book by Teresa Driscoll. It was great that Matthew Hill and DS Melanie Sanders returned to be involved in this case where every Wednesday we waited to fond out what would happen next. I thought I had it all worked out until the final twist in the tale. Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with the digital copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

spoiler alert ** A decently paced thriller,switching between timelines,of a woman being stalked,and what you assume is the backstory of the stalker.
I hadn't realised the characters of Mathew and Mel had been in a previous book,this certainly never felt like you were missing a past from them,but there relationship was a good part of the story.
In fact I'm hoping I get to read more books with them in.
I had my suspicions who was stalking Alice early on,ad the red herrings thrown in there almost wavered me.
I liked the pace of the book and the slow retelling of the story,so the reason for it all makes sense.
Enjoyable read.

Thrilling, compelling and full of tension.

Brilliant story of how your actions ripple through the world. Tied up with a tragic story of a mother and grand mothers love.

I really enjoyed this book and read it in one sitting.

“Every Wednesday, like clockwork, the terror returns.”

A creepy stalker with a dark past has turned Alice Henderson’s world upside down in this page-turning thriller by Teresa Driscoll.

Alice begins receiving threatening phone calls, packages, etc. (involving the use of cheesewire 😳😳) every Wednesday, causing her to enlist the help of private investigator, Matthew. What occurs beyond that can only be described as terrifying. The story is told from multiple perspectives through different timelines, and is pieced together in a way that gave me a growing sense of dread with each chapter.

I found myself most intrigued by the chapters from the stalker’s perspective because I wanted to know more about why he was targeting Alice specifically. I love a good thriller that keeps me on my toes, and this one sure did! I totally thought I had it figured out...but I was so wrong! Great book!

Thank you, Netgalley and Amazon Publishing UK for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Beyond amazing I enjoyed this book so very much. The characters and storyline were fantastic. The ending I did not see coming Could not put down nor did I want to.

The threats come every Wednesday like clockwork. It started with a phone call, but it seems to be escalating, and now reporter Alice is beginning to wonder if these threats are not against the paper she works for...but against her personally.  She doesn't feel safe anywhere, always feeling as if the eyes of her stalker are on her; and as the threats become more personal, she worries her loved ones may be in danger, too.  

I was thrilled to receive this Netgalley ARC of I Will Make You Pay, by Teresa Driscoll. I was a huge fan of her books I am Watching You and The Friend, both 5-star reads for me, so getting my hands on this was a treat.   Driscoll has impressed me in the past with her talent of weaving domestic thrillers - of creating characters who at first glance appear to be your average, everyday person, but who slowly morph into something altogether creepy.  I didn't quite connect to this book as much as I did with her previous books, and I was a bit disappointed with the ending. However, I did still find this to be a compulsive read.  I had a mounting sense of doom as I watched the threats to Alice become increasingly threatening. There were plenty of twists and turns, and I kept finding myself scrutinizing every character, trying to predict the "whodunnit".  No one seemed safe, and that made the book all the more gripping. Overall, this was a ⭐⭐⭐⭐ read for me.

With thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for the ARC, which I have enjoyed reading.
I have read other books of Teresa Driscoll’s and find them intriguing and entertaining, with a dark twist at the end. I Will Make. You Pay is a story of a journalist, Jenny, who has an unfortunate history with men. She is engaged to Alex, a music teacher whom unfortunately also grooms 14 year old girls and runs away with one. Then moves and changes her name and meets Tom, she has used her middle name to work with an online newspaper and it is whilst at work that she receives the telephone call that is the start of her being stalked.
It is very realistic and frightening the storyline that unfolds.
Throughout all of the stalking Alice and her sister are also deeply concerned about the failing health of their mother who developed CPD and is now fading away in front of their eyes.
I would highly recommended reading this book.

To me, a good thriller includes the following: well crafted atmosphere, intuitive characterization, smart details, and a compelling plot. I Will Make You Pay just fell short of these requirements. The atmosphere is basic, the characters feel flat, details are lacking, and the plot is forced, with ending leaving the reader puzzled and skeptical. In an overcrowded genre, this story doesn’t measure up to the standards of a more experienced thriller aficionado.

I wasn't sure about this book but thought i would give it a go. It was great!! Plenty of twists and turns with good characters, just when i thought i had sussed it out it turns out i was wrong. It certainly kept me turning the pages. I will look to read more by this author. I would definitely recommend.
