Review: Wrong Place, Wrong Time by Gillian McAllister
By Diana Tramontano
What would you do if you watched your son murder someone?
Jen, a wife and mother, is eagerly awaiting her son to arrive home after his night out. When she hears something outside, she looks through the window just in time to witness her seventeen-year-old son murder someone. As Jen tries to understand what could possibly have happened, she wakes up the next day to realize it is actually the day before. Each day, Jen wakes up further back in time. We unravel the events that lead up to the murder through Jen’s eyes and try to make sense of the secrets beneath the surface.
I heard so many amazing things about this book before I read it, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. I loved how the narrative worked backward through time, uncovering bits and pieces of the missing story along the way. It was a quick read that left me wanting more.
This book is an absolute must-read thriller, just in time for spooky season!
