I received an ARC of this book in return for an honest review.

*Only Daughter* by Anna Snoekstra is a gripping psychological thriller that kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. The writing is stellar, weaving a dark and suspenseful atmosphere that draws you into its web. The story features a perfect blend of intrigue, a bit of romance, and unexpected thrills that make it highly addictive. The mystery surrounding the central plot is both chilling and clever, with twists that kept me guessing at every turn.

The protagonist is complex and relatable, and her journey is filled with emotional depth. The psychological tension between the characters adds an extra layer of suspense, making the stakes feel incredibly high. However, while the book offers a stellar ride, the ending didn’t quite live up to the rest of the story for me. It felt a bit rushed and left me wanting more. Despite that, *Only Daughter* is still a fantastic read for fans of psychological thrillers.

Took me a while to get into, but in the end found it a great plot with a shocking twist at the end. It's about a young woman, homeless and hungry, when caught by the police tells them she was abducted some years before. It's not true, but she looks just like a girl of similar age who was reported missing or abducted some years back. She is reunited with the family, who appear to accept her as their daughter .... or do they? A good story and I did not see the twist coming.
THanks to the publisher for a review copy.

Four and a half stars
Told by 2 voices, Bec and Rebecca. Bec disappears from her home and ten years later Rebecca, who looks very much like her, sidles into the family home - an imposter trying to live the life of her predecessor. This is one dark thriller with some very creepy people. Reading this is like being in a maze trying to find your way out - first one way, then speeding off in another direction. I loved it and found it very hard to put down. What a great story, so different from the usual psychological tales. I hope Anna is busy writing another book especially if it's anywhere near as good as this one!
