I received a copy of this book for free, and I leave my review voluntarily.

J.S. Ellis is the author of psychological thrillers and suspense and published her debut psychological thriller in 2019, which was an instant success and received great praise from readers. She writes stories about obsession and betrayal. When she’s not putting her characters in uncomfortable, difficult positions, J.S Ellis likes to relax with her husband and their fur baby, Eloise. They live on the sunny island of Malta.

“I was there to serve, not to ask questions.”

Abigail is a housekeeper at a hotel. She’s good at her job, and she follows the rules. When a handsome guest shows an interest in her, she is shocked to learn he is famous. And he recently lost his wife. After a whirlwind romance, Abigail finds herself far from home, trying to navigate her new life. Except not all who die Rest In Peace.

This was quite the whirlwind. I don’t usually read paranormal/ghost stories, but I enjoyed this one.

The character development was good. And the plot moved along at a decent pace. The build-up was great, and the twist was well played.

I enjoyed Abigail as our lead; she was such a bold character. I loved how normal she was, how she was not flashy or pretentious.

I enjoy how J.S. tells a complete story without fluff. This was a quick read that held my attention. I enjoyed the thriller aspect, and I like that the paranormal wasn’t overdone or campy.

This is an excellent choice if you’re looking for a book to grab your attention and hold it throughout.
