REVIEW: Friend Request by Laura Marshall


Friend Request by Laura Marshall
Genre: Psychological Thriller
Read: 12th August 2017
Purchase: Amazon

★★★★ 4 stars

Where do I start? This book sounded intriguing from the moment I read it's description. The thought of receiving a friend requesf on Facebook from someone you knew who had died 25 years before made for chilling reading. The subsequent messages from the said friend that leaves you looking over your shoulder and with a feeling of being watched would kind of make you a little paranoid. Yes? This is what happens to Louise Williams, the narrator of the story, who along with her circle of friends bullied this young girl in their year as teenagers. 25 years later, Louise is a different person and lives with the knowledge of her part in the girl, Maria's, demise. She feels responsible; that she was to blame. But nothing prepares her for the truth when it comes out.

Did Maria really die 25 years ago? Or did she survive and has now returned to make them all pay for what they did to her?

The tables are turned when a body is found not far from where Maria was last seen...and the race is on to find the killer and the truth about that night 25 years ago before Louise becomes the next victim. 

Edge of your seat thriller. Brilliant debut.
