Night Visitor

by Gillian White

All Rose asks of Michael is complete fidelity, and when she has cause to doubt him she devises a terrible revenge. Michael has planned an anniversary trip to Venice for the two of them, but as they ride in gondolas and wander the sights of this most romantic of cities, Rose, racked with secret jealousy, is making plans. By the time they return, Michael will have become seriously ill—although not so ill that he cannot recognize the fact that something truly dreadful has happened to him.

Nach Zögern hab ich es doch beendet. Hat mich leider nicht abgeholt bzw war nichts für meinen Geschmack. Der erste Teil hat mich angewidert (was aber eigentlich den guten Stil der Autorin widerspiegelt), Teil 2 hat mich unendlich verwirrt. die Auflösung kam und hat mich überrascht und dann war es zu Ende. Ich bin froh dass ich das Buch gelesen habe, aber Spaß gemacht hat es mir aufgrund der Thematik wenig.

This book was so long winded!!! But stuck out it and the ending was brilliant... just a shame the only exciting stuff happened in the last 10 pages.

A great read, with a few twists thrown in.

Twisty psychological thriller. Had me guessing the whole book and I still got it wrong.

[Diane · Rating 2 out of 5]

This author is new to me and I won't be reading anymore, her style is easy enough to read but it's all over the place. She writes, at times, as though someone is speaking to the reader but I'm not sure who's speaking. I wonder too when White decided who the perpetrator was because it feels like it was near the end. Overall, not very impressed.

I struggled to score this! I was disturbed by this book at times. So much so I nearly stopped reading it, it was so uncomfortable. I am glad I persevered though. Maybe it should be a 4, or more. If you read it you will understand. Really liked the end.

Read it in one day. But can't say I liked it.
