‘The momentum of the story never faltered, and there was always some action or event happening to keep us the reader engrossed’ HONESTMAMREADER ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A single phone call can destroy your life
Joey Clarke was just fifteen when his dad died, leaving him to raise his much younger siblings as his mum dealt with the trauma of bereavement and her failing health. Ten years on, Joey’s only pleasure is spending time with his friend Becca, the love of his life. It’s the one escape from his dead-end job, his ever-increasing debts and the fear that enforcement agents will knock on his front door any day.

So when a phone call brings Joey the chance to ease the burdens of his life, he grabs the opportunity, even though he knows things are not entirely as they should be. He justifies it to himself as a way to get back on his feet. But when he finds himself party to a crime linked to Becca, he panics.

As catastrophic events unfold, Joey becomes further embroiled in a web of secrets, lies and deceit. He is now faced with the impossible. Should he confess to the police? Tell Becca? Or should he keep quiet and say nothing?

And when the next job comes in, Joey wants out.

But this time, Joey’s in way too deep to say no…

BOOK STAR REVIEWS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A mother's love. A daughter's life. A race against time.
London-based Steph Knight faces the challenge of a lifetime when she's sent to New York to cover for a colleague involved in a tragic car accident. Recently divorced, Steph sees it as an opportunity for a fresh start and to spend time with her teenage daughter, Ellie, a talented musician, before she leaves for university.
Soon after arriving, Steph crosses paths with Edward, a corporate lawyer, who introduces Ellie to Jack, a bioethics student enjoying his summer break. As both relationships intensify, Steph begins to uncover a web of corruption within her company that seemingly reaches right to the top. Feeling increasingly threatened, she has no idea who she can trust. Not even the men they’ve fallen for are beyond suspicion.
And then the unthinkable happens. Ellie disappears.

Steph receives a menacing text message. Ellie has been kidnapped.

The clock is ticking. Ellie’s life is in danger. And so is Steph’s.

Terrified, far from home, and with no one to trust, Steph must draw on her inner strength to save her daughter… even if it kills her.

You can’t go wrong with this book collection!

The Phone Call
GET ready, GET set, and GET your seat belt on because it is such a fast and twisty ride! I was immediately pulled in and it doesn’t take long for a big 💥. I could not turn the pages fast enough! The ending was so unexpected but really made all of the twists and thrillers throughout out the book that much more amazing!

I felt so bad for the financial situation that Joey was put in and the stress that he had to deal with. His less than ideal situation unfortunately lead to so many dark secrets, deceit, and heartbreaking events.

This is by far my favorite book of Campbells’. If you are looking for a fast paced, binge worthy psychological thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat, READ THIS BOOK!

The Wrong Key
Another winner by Campbell that will leave you on the edge of your seat! This was a twisty, suspenseful read that will lead you to flip thru the pages! Campbell’s writing is just brilliant and I will read anything she writes. Make sure to add this book to your TBR, you won’t be disappointed!

Her Missing Husband
Such a heart pounding story that you will not want to put down! If there is one author I want you to try out, it’s AJ Campbell!

While I figured out one plot twist, I would have never guess the reasoning behind it. The ending was so surprising and suspenseful, I could feel my heart beating out of my chest!

It’s hard to pick my favorite between The Phone Call and Her Missing Husbands but they will both forever stick in my mind! Do yourself a favor and add this to your TBR!

What an amazing Bargain - All three books so very different but every one a brilliant and totally gripping read.

THE PHONE CALL
A psychological thriller with a surprise twist at the end and full of shocking revelations throughout.

A touching story of how life can change drastically at the drop of a hat. A young family, blissfully happy, suddenly lose their their beloved father. Life changes drastically in that moment. The mother’s health is not good and the eldest son, only fifteen, must give up on his dreams, leave education and take a dead end job to support his family. Money is tight, debits are piling up and they are struggling until his luck seems to change when his car breaks down at a garage and the owner offers to fix it - but at what cost?

How will Joey find the money? The garage owner offers to let him pay by doing some deliveries for him in the evenings. It sounds like easy money but he soon finds himself involved in a crime he didn’t commit and life for this hard working, honest young lad becomes his worst nightmare.

THE WRONG KEY
Stupendous! Truly Inspired Physiological Thriller

The first book I ever read from this amazingly talented Author was the very first - ‘Choices’ - a short story which was offered as a free read. Since then I have followed the author’s extremely successful career and am so pleased to say that I am always amazed by the increasing quality of the books she so carefully crafts. Every one of the five psychological thrillers to date have been truly gripping and the concluding chapters have always had a twist one wasn’t expecting. Each of the five books so far have just stormed through the charts - they really are that good.

The Wrong Key starts gently, leading you through the background of the lead character then exploding into a truly gripping and terrifying tale of what lengths some corporate company employees will resort to in order to expand their businesses and maintain their lifestyles with no compassion for those they hurt along the way. A no holds barred thriller where the reader cannot truly decipher who is lying or what is really happening behind the scenes until the full reveal: You really won’t be able to put it down down. A truly absorbing and terrifyingly plausible thriller.

If you haven’t read any of these amazing books then you have missed out. Each one completely different to the last but all absolutely gripping from beginning to the very end.

THE MISSING HUSBAND
F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S! STUNNING! Very Highly Recommended.

Once again, this clever Author has managed to exceed all expectations and presented readers with, possibly, the best book so far!

So thoroughly amazing, well written, gripping, and spellbinding right up to the very end, when there were three major reveals.

Usually I have some inkling about the killer, and the ending, but not this time.

Remember to breathe as you hurtle through the book!

Every one of AJ Campbell’s books has been AMAZING but I think this my favourite so far.

Hard to believe this talented author only started writing a short while ago and has already produced several stunning stories.

What an AMAZING boxset! I loved all three of these gripping psychological thrillers by AJ Campbell. Her writing style is excellent and if you enjoy thrillers, then you don't want to miss out on reading these!! Highly recommend all three books. Solid 4.5 stars / 5 stars for all.

The Phone Call
Had me on the edge of my seat!
Fast-paced, intense situations, realistic characters, and an interesting plot! Joey's character was my favorite and he will stick with me for some time. He had the weight of the world on his shoulders with taking care of his Mom, brother, and sister after his Dad died.

The Wrong Key
Such an addictive read with strong female characters that will have you guessing up until the end! I enjoyed the betrayal, corruption, and dark secrets. As a mother myself, I could relate to Steph and the lengths she is willing to go to for her daughter.

Her Missing Husband
I really enjoyed Lori’s character and was desperately trying to figure out what happened to her husband, Howie. This plot was so addictive. I really couldn’t put this book down and the ending!!!
There were so many unexpected twists I didn't see coming. The ending--was jaw dropping!

If you are in the mood for three face paced, edge of your seat psychological thrillers then these are your books. The phone Call is my all time favourite AJ Campbell book. The main character Joey is so likeable but he gets himself into a horrible situation because he’s desperately trying to take care of his family. The Wrong Key, another 5 star read, kept me up way past my bedtime as I had to know what happened and how the story ended. Let’s just say it was a shocking ending and I might have shed a tear or two. The third book in this boxed set, Her Missing Husband, was mind blowing and gave me the chills. What would you do if your husband left for work one morning and never returned? That’s exactly what happened to main character Lori, and seven years later she is still searching for answers! While trying to put her life back together and carry on Lori needs closure and tries desperately to find out what happened to her husband. But what happens next will shock you!

Every one of her books are fantastic but they do tend to keep you up til the early hours, especially m talking easily 3am. I couldn’t pick a favourite of hers,I’ve read them all. The one that sticks out is the Phone Call because I really felt for the young lad and found his story very hard to endure (if that’s the right word)

These are three fantastic books and I can't recommend them highly enough!

My favourite thing about AJ Campbell's writing is that she creates realistic, memorable characters who you really grow to care about. All these books have exciting plots and are extremely well written.

My personal favourite in the box set is The Wrong Key, but all are easy 5 star reads.

I devoured these books, fast paced, kept me guessing. I loved them. No need to read them in any particular order. They are each a physiological thriller in their own right. You’ll race through them… Well done AJ, you never fail to deliver…

Her Missing Husband
Lori as a journalist has been keeping a low profile due to what she has written. With a missing husband, did she really know him, when secrets are revealed. A taunt pyscholigal thriller, I enjoyed.
The Wrong Key
Steph is sent to work in the NY office, and time to spend with her daughter Ellie.
Things were not what they were suppose to be with this company.
Feeling threatened when a nightmare happened and ordered to stop.
.Gripping plot from the beginning,, of one who is like a rag doll in their treatment of her.
The Phone Call
Joey awaiting a call, making deliveries after hours, was it legal stuff, he questions.
He’s sinking in debts and those of his mother and siblings, what choice did he have.
When a crime happens and it affects the one he loves, he feels trapped, and in a bigger mess.
An interesting plot, of how it unfolds, with surprises and decisions await him.

I have read these 3 books and the one before. I have the first 2 in paperback signed copies.

Amanda is definitely in my list for my top favourite authors. I would buy her books without even needing to read the blurb!

Thoroughly enjoyed these books and more importantly (to me), i remember the storylines months after reading. I read ALOT and have memory issues. Great characters and the storylines very believable. You won’t be disappointed.

This box set is one of the best of the best. Every book is a thrill ride and hard to put down til the last page is read. Cover to cover and full of unexpected twists and turns you'll be reading late into the night. The characters are unforgettable, and the stories are exciting. I would give this box set 15 stars and recommend it to everyone.
