MY REVIEW






I had read Anything for her by Jack Jordan and when the opportunity came up to read this book, I jumped at the chance! I've always been one for a good Thriller and Crime novel, and until a few years ago I have to admit I wouldn't read a book by an author I hadn't heard of. I'm glad I don't make that mistake now, or I would be missing out on a really talented author like Jack Jordan. His books have more twists and turns than a rollercoaster. This book is one rollercoaster of a ride!

Paige lost her Daughter in the most awful way imaginable. All that was recovered from her body were her fingers, found in a river. As if this was not bad enough, her Husband then committed suicide. Her life then took a bad turn and she turned to substance abuse to try and deaden the pain. It was heartbreaking to read, and heartbreaking for those who cared for her, including her Father and her Brother Maxim.

Then she started uncovering things that left her confused but determined to find out. This gets her into serious trouble and it seems as if there is no way out.

I can't say much more as it would give too many spoilers away and I don't want to do that as it would seriously ruin this edge of the seat thriller. What I will say though is if you like a book that you can't put down and makes you sit on the edge of the seat, then this one is for you. I will say there are some very upsetting and graphic moments in this book, so be aware of that. I would say if you read one Thriller this year, make it this one!

Blog Tour & Review - Anything for Her by Jack Jordan


TITLE - Anything For Her 

AUTHOR - Jack Jordan

FORMAT - Paperback or Kindle

PAGES - 340


GENRE - Thriller/Crime/Mystery


PURCHASE - Kindle click here; Paperback click here


SYNOPSIS (From Goodreads)

Sometimes the past comes back to haunt you.


Louise Leighton’s life has fallen apart, all because of one fateful night. Her husband is an adulterer, her sister is his mistress, and soon, Louise will lose everything she owns. But she never imagined she would lose her daughter.

Eighteen-year-old Brooke Leighton is missing. It’s up to Louise and the Metropolitan Police to find her. Has Brooke run away? Or has she been taken against her will? And can Louise aid the investigation without mentioning the night where all of her troubles began?

If she mentions that night, she will incriminate her daughter for heinous crimes. But if she doesn’t, she may never find Brooke; and if she has been abducted, the person who took her may come for Louise, too.

Sometimes the past comes back to kill you.


MY REVIEW 


This book was unputdownable! It wasn't a book where you had to read a few chapters before you were hooked, I was hooked from the start. I was really intrigued as to what this terrible family secret was that could split a family apart completely, affecting all members of the family in different ways. The author had made the characters really personable and very real.

The storyline was fantastic and utterly believable. There were so many factors to it and the author pulled them together with ease.

It was emotional and upsetting as it was tearing a very close family apart with the son Dominic having to go through things no young boy should have to go through. It was also gripping at the same time with some amazing twists and turns, usually Louise being at the end of something terrifying. Without adding any spoilers it was utterly intriguing and I couldn't put the book down as I wanted to keep reading to see who was behind all the bad things that was happening.

If you want a book that keeps you on the edge of your seat then you have to read this. I also think it would make a great screenplay.


An amazing debut novel!! I am going to be watching out for Jack Jordans next book and hoping it's every bit as good as this one.
