Josslyn has a voice inside her head named Alicia who although seems like any other everyday person on the face of it, is very deadly. As the story develops, it becomes obvious that Alicia is a psychopath to take over Josslyn’s body and life.
What is to come is a psychological battle between Josslyn and Alicia, and Josslyn’s attempts to find out more about this inner demon. This dark, very entertaining thriller is brought to life by the complex lead and supporting characters and keeps the complex concept very grounded. On its way to a spectacular end, the chilling, violent scenes of my Dark Self are offset by the lighter moments. Thriller lovers will be hooked by this high-velocity thriller. I rate this a solid 5 on 5 stars.

Callie’s whirlwind romance with the handsome Duncan quickly turns into a nightmare when his charming exterior hides a dangerously controlling man. The build-up of tension as Callie realizes she needs to escape is excruciating. Just when she thinks she has found a safe hiding place, the suspense ramps up even further, making me wonder if Duncan has tracked her down or if the danger is coming from someone else. The twists and turns kept me guessing until the very last page.
This fast-paced psychological thriller sucks you in and doesn’t let go. With a compelling lead character and a villain that made my skin crawl, this book hits all the marks for an exceptional read. A must for any thriller fan or reader who likes stories with strong female protagonists. Keri’s books improve with every book she writes. In my opinion, this is the best of all she has done so far.

This was a fantastic book. I have found myself another new author to follow in the future.
Silent Sister is an intriguing, gripping mystery that carries the reader deep into a sister’s love. Grace, the protagonist, frantically tries to recall how her sister, Maddy, disappeared. The way the characters and motives are developed in this story is very complex and detailed; no child’s whys or wherefores seem stable.
The story is wonderfully structured, with Grace’s amnesia adding suspense. This lack of memory adds another element to the mystery. We, just like Grace, are trying with her every step to reconstruct what happened in the affairs surrounding Maddy’s death. The author uses this to create suspense and thicken the plot, holding readers on tenterhooks.
The deeper we go into the story, the more everything we thought was Maddy and her disappearance is questioned. The author skillfully implants in our minds seeds of self-doubt so that we begin to doubt ourselves until the last page.
The prose is tense and attractive as the mystery deepens with each new clue. With skillful prose and imagery, the author draws an intense picture of a story that readers are swept headlong into.
This plot has more twists and turns than a mountain road, keeping you reading until dawn. Its surprise ending will leave you stunned. I loved this book, and I believe you will, too!
