All for You by Louise Jenson

 



The book:-

MEET THE WALSH FAMILY

Lucy: Loving mother. Devoted wife. And falling to pieces.
Aidan: Dedicated father. Faithful husband. And in too deep.
Connor:Hardworking son. Loyal friend. But can never tell the truth.

Everyone in this family is hiding something, but one secret will turn out to be the deadliest of all . . .

Can this family ever recover when the truth finally comes out?

What I thought:-

Louise Jensen has done it again, but even twistier and darker than before!  This story describes a devoted family, but like most families, each member has secrets, and secrets can be dangerous. The slow dig below the surface of their lives had me gasping with surprise as events unfurled.  Meanwhile, their community is sent reeling by the disappearance of a teenaged boy.  All is very much not as it seems.

Louise Jenson has written some excellent psychological thrillers but this one has more suspense, twists and surprises than any other of hers I have enjoyed: she has taken it to another level.  I was absolutely gripped by the story and rode the rollercoaster of twists and disclosures with a mounting sense of excitement and dread.  An amazing, brave piece of writing, domestic noir at its best.  How far would you go for your loved ones?
