An excellent thriller and one that is thrilling from the start.
This is the sort of book that you will look forward to going to bed early in order to get stuck in again.
I'd sort of worked out that all the players were connected but not quite how so the ending was a welcome surprise.

I love a story that is a bit different and unique and this certainly was but oh so good. Five strangers all receive a message from a unknown number but what it contains is truly shocking. The person you love is in danger so you have to play the game to save them or they will die. We meet each of the five strangers and a little of their back ground and then we really get into the nitty gritty of what the game involves and it is not a pretty sight, it is a thought provoking story that chilled me to the bone, there are plenty of twists and turns along the way, full of suspense and intrigue that will have you up all night wondering who will die and who will live. Such a cleverly written story and one that I would highly recommend.

A chilling storyline that makes you see how easy it would be for you to get caught up in The Game. Compelling story and loved the back stories of the characters and how they all come together.

I loved the premise of this story and I did fly through it relatively quickly, desperate to know who was behind it all and what was going to happen next. I live my thrillers some what realistic so that you get that added.... this could really happen type scare, however this story does have a lot of very outlandish aspects. It's well written and if you can take a wee flight of fantasy then it is quite a good book and it does certainly keep you guessing. You'll never guess the big reveal until its all broken down for you which is awesome. And you'll find that the villain may not be who you are expecting

Five strangers across the globe receive horrifying messages - that their loved ones have been kidnapped and they must take part in a game to try to save them. Why have they been chosen? Can they save their loved ones? A thrilling story that keeps you turning the pages, also a few twists and turns. A good read. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an advance copy of the book in return for my honest feedback.

A fun read.
Across the globe, five strangers receive a horrifying message from an unknown number.
THE PERSON YOU LOVE MOST IS IN DANGER. To save them, each must play The Game – a sinister unknown entity that has a single rule: there can only be one winner.IF YOU LOSE, YOUR LOVED ONE WILL DIE.But what is The Game – and why have they been chosen? There’s only one thing each of them knows for sure: they’ll do anything to win…
It's a perfect read for the fans of The Players by Darren O Sullivan.
I adored it.
