My Review: 5 STARS

Devious to the max!

I devoured this book in two days and didn’t want to put it down! A riveting story of psychological suspense.  I was quickly questioning every move every character made. From beginning to end, I was all in! Yes!

With a promise of anonymity and a fat paycheck, Jessica weasels her way into a study on morality and ethics. She was assigned the name of Subject 52 and presented with numerous questions.  I could feel her tension growing as the questions progressed into the realm of what would you do? I quickly got the feeling that this test was quite a mind game!

Dr. Shields may go done as one of the most perplexing doctor characters I’ve encountered.  What was her motivation for recruiting these women? Jessica wonders how the doctor seems to know her thoughts.

I had some adrenaline surging moments as the tension amped-up and the plot unfolded. Everyone seems to have something to hide. The ending was just so perfect!

Highly recommend this suspense filled mind game that pushes all the boundaries.

Book Description:

 

Seeking women ages 18–32 to participate in a study on ethics and morality. Generous compensation. Anonymity guaranteed. 

When Jessica Farris signs up for a psychology study conducted by the mysterious Dr. Shields, she thinks all she’ll have to do is answer a few questions, collect her money, and leave. But as the questions grow more and more intense and invasive and the sessions become outings where Jess is told what to wear and how to act, she begins to feel as though Dr. Shields may know what she’s thinking…and what she’s hiding. As Jess’s paranoia grows, it becomes clear that she can no longer trust what in her life is real, and what is one of Dr. Shields’ manipulative experiments. Caught in a web of deceit and jealousy, Jess quickly learns that some obsessions can be deadly.

  21. Wonderful review Holly. I love that it was a grabber from the beginning to the end. Psychological thrillers are becoming a favourite genre for me. I can’t wait to get to this book. The Besties have done it again.

  23. I loved this book so much! I was hooked from the start and until the very end, this book kept me on the edge of my seat. If you’re into psychological suspenses or you would like to try it out, I recommend it (even though I haven’t read a lot of them, I’m getting more and more interested in them).

    This book was compelling as you follow Jessica, a young make-up artist who gets to answer some peculiar questions about morality & ethics. This research is done by a psychiatrist. That’s all I’m going to tell you about this book. Honestly, I think it’s best to start reading without knowing too much about it. 🙂
