Memphis: A gripping domestic thriller full of twists and turns:
"This was such a good book! I loved the swings between a normal, cozy life and, ah, being on the run from an abusive ex.
While it doesn't have an explicit scene, make sure to check the triggers. Even through I figured out the twists early on, I had to k" Read more of this review » |

“And when the questions finally stopped, the silence that settled was heavy but merciful. Alone in that quiet, Doris’s thoughts drifted to the promise she’d whispered in the dark—a vow to protect Red’s boys as fiercely as if they were her own. And every day since, she’d kept that promise.”

“An enthralling and sensitive work of crime fiction.
Cormier has created a folksy, enthralling story that could have been the subject of a tragic country song; it grows more exciting and complex as the narrative progresses. Multiple perspectives are handled flawlessly—the author deftly uses them to juxtapose the airy freedom of Memphis’ fantasies and aspirations and the darkness of her reality. The characters are all handled with care; none are stereotypical and each gets a chance to explain themselves, whether the reader agrees with them or not. Johnny in particular is portrayed in a complex manner as Cormier touches on his background and conveys how he became such a toxic person, allowing readers to understand him without condoning his actions. The result is a story full of twists, turns, and desperation, delivered with the passion and dedication of an advocate, which elevates the novel above standard thriller/crime fare.”
