YOU LET ME IN PB

When Elle returns to her house in Cornwall, something doesn’t feel right, did something happen while she rented out her place on the cliffs? Is her imagination playing a trick on her, or is this feeling of being watched real? The story starts secretive and thought-provoking I was in it instantly. The author writes the story well, placing false leads everywhere. I never stopped guessing who the intruder might be, is it the neighbour or from Elle’s past? Someone close to her or an acquaintance. While reading I could feel how Elle is distressed by this situation, on top of her other problems. Lucy Clarke did a good job with the creation of the characters and the plot. All those twists heightened my expectations of a spectacular conclusion, but I was disappointed about the ending. After that suspenseful middle part, I had expected a more explosive end. Usually, Lucy Clarke includes a location background, like a tourist guide packed into a crime story. Here I didn’t mind her different approach, it was a nice change. All in all, I enjoyed the story despite the unexpected end.
