My fellow suspense and psychological thriller readers, here are couple of February releases that are WAY at the top of my list of books I want to read ASAP!
The One, by John Marrs. A decade ago, the company called Match Your DNA claimed they'd found a way to match you to your soulmate genetically. Since then, millions of people worldwide have been matched. In the process, however, thousands of couples have broken up, and all conventional ideas of love, romance and dating have been discarded. Now, five very different people have been notified that they've been "matched". But matches don't mean happily every after. Sometimes, "the one" has some dark secrets they'd rather you didn't discover. This has been a HUGE hit in the UK, and I expect it to be a word-of-mouth favorite here in the US as well.
Force of Nature, by Jane Harper. After the huge success of Harper's The Dry (2017), I'd be remiss if I neglected to let my fellow readers know about her new novel, due out in early February. When five colleagues are forced to go out into the wilderness on a corporate retreat as a "team building exercise," they reluctantly pick up their backpacks and start down the muddy path. But one of the five never returns. Each of her companions, however, has a slightly different story to tell as to what happened. Federal Police Agent Aaron Falk's (of The Dry) investigation into the whereabouts of the missing hiker takes him deep into the isolated forest, and into a web of betrayal, suspicion and personal and professional relationships. But did it all lead to murder? If you're a fan of Harper's debut, or if you're just in the mood for a great suspense novel with a satisfying finish, this should absolutely be on your reading list.
