Blurb 

She wrote a killer story. Now it's coming true...

In the small village of Fortbridge, it's hard to keep a secret. But bestselling crime writer Camilla Harton-Gray is faced with a twist she couldn't see her very own stalker, whose behaviour seems to take a leaf out of Camilla's own novels.

Grappling with a bizarre set of clues, stubborn coworkers and a crisis of confidence, DS Alice Washington knows this is her chance to get it together and prove herself.

But as the pressure builds and Alice's grip on her instincts hangs by a thread, it becomes clear that Camilla's stalker will do anything to keep their identity hidden...

My Thoughts 

I thoroughly enjoyed the plot of this book. 

It was slow paced to start with and as the story develops and you joining Camilla DS Alice in solving this crime it soon picks up. The second of the book built up the tension and the finally was unexpected and well done. 

The characters were all well developed. The author took time in immersing the reader into getting to know the characters, we learn about their past and present lives which helped personalities come through. 

I really liked how the author added the POV of the stalker, this elevated the plot and made it more sinister as we get into the mind of them and their actions. We also mainly hear from DS Alice and her partner Roy, also which helps the story come together as she tries to uncover who the stalker is. 

As much as this was a thriller it did have touches of jokes and sarcasm which was funny to read.
