I Know What I Saw: A Gripping Domestic Thriller of Lies, Family, and Betrayal

by J. Cronshaw

“Mum, I saw Dad kill Kevin Jacobs.”

Seven words that shatter Vicky McKeating’s world.

Her daughter Hannah is certain.

Her husband Matt is furious.

And her neighbour Kevin is dead at the bottom of Serpentine Walk.

But who’s telling the truth?

As whispers spread through Lytham, neighbours take sides and gossip turns poisonous.

Kevin’s widow plays the grieving victim. Matt’s alibi doesn’t add up. And Hannah won’t back down from what she swears she saw.

Vicky is trapped between the people she loves most.

Every answer uncovers a darker question. Every ally feels like an enemy. And the closer she gets to the truth about that December night, the more she realises some secrets don’t just break families.

They destroy them.

I Know What I Saw is a gripping, claustrophobic domestic noir for fans of Lisa Jewell, Shari Lapena and A.J. Carter.

[Tracy · Rating 3 out of 5]

It was an interesting story, that took me down lots of different alleys trying to work out who was the baddie. The story comes across a little unbelievable at times but it works in its own way.

I received this as an ARC and this is my honest opinion.

Mismanagement of the truth can become very complicated. This noir thriller clearly demonstrates that fact. An engaging read

[Jo Hillan · Rating 1 out of 5]

Very disappointed with this one. Very repetitive. Had to skim just to get to the conclusion

[Debbie · Rating 3 out of 5]

Good premise, but very repetitive and slow. Contradictions in peoples characters were confusing.
