The experience Alice Hunter has from working in rehabilitation services in a prison shines through in her latest novel.
Eleanor is working as a criminal psychologist interviewing criminals as part of a rehabilitation scheme, but when she is assigned to work with Lucas, a whole term lifer, the tables seem to turn as he manipulates her by goading her about latest cases and the disappearance of her sister Grace 5 years previously.
I found this a slow burn drama more than a thriller, I was tied up in knots and my constantly changing suspicions of the perpetrator were unsuccessful.

Alice Hunter books always shock me. Every time I pick one up I think I am going to work it all out… but I never do. Full of brilliant twists, dodgy characters and just superb storytelling The Perfect Psychopath kept me up well past bedtime to finish. I was completely blindsided once again and I loved it. With a title like that I knew that I would.

A psychologist working in a prison with plenty of her own demons and secrets. A tragedy in her past that comes back when a series of murders happen and the police ask for her help. I don’t want to say too much as I really think you just need to read it and find out for yourself.

Thanks so much to Avon Books UK for my advanced copy of this book to read. Published on May 22nd.

The Perfect Psychopath is a complicated, twisted thriller that had me up all night reading and thinking! It follows a Dr who has to engage with prisoners and it gets nasty. It has the right amount of fear. I flew through it in a few hours.

The Perfect Psychopath by Alice Hunter, published by Avon Books UK /Harper Collins UK, is a complex, complicated thriller full og unexpected twists and turns, including multiple characters and this end I never ever had expected.
A bit confusing at first, detailed, langatmig tells the story of Ellie, an psychologist, and her sister:
- Sara a cop, and her investigation and the danger that brings to her doorstep and the interwoven bonds the two women have.
Intriguing, literally unputdownable, 5 stars.

Thanks to the author, the publisher and Netgalley for an early release of this book.

Couldn't put it down, I read into the late hours of the night devoured the whole book in a day! I simply couldn't go to bed until I knew how it would end… I was sitting there with my mouth wide open and mind blown.

LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!!!!! You will not believe the twists and you will not guess the ending no matter how hard you try! THIS BOOK MUST BE READ BY EVERYONE.

The ending had me saying, “WHHAAAATTTTT?!?!?!?” Such an amazing twist… I. Could. Not. Stop. Reading… This ending will stick with me.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ from me!

This is my first Alice Hunter book and it was great! I loved the mixed media aspects, some case files, diary entry’s, mysterious POV chapters and newspaper clippings. I think it adds a layer to the story. The immersion into the role of a forensic psychologist was fab too and I read that the author worked in a prison and this really showed. It starts quite quickly, it was a little slower in the middle but it ended up like a suspenseful whodunit as it got near the end.
