Book Review - What Lies Between Us by John Marrs

Title: 
What Lies Between Us
Series: -
Author: John Marrs
 
Description: They say every house has its secrets, and the house Maggie and Nina have shared for so long is no different. Except that these secrets are not buried in the past.
 
Every other night, Maggie and Nina have dinner together. When they are finished, Nina helps Maggie back to her room in the attic, and into the heave chain that keeps her there. Because Maggie has done things to Nina that can’t ever be forgiven, and now she is paying the price.
 
But there are many things about the past that Nina doesn’t know, and Maggie is going to keep it that way, even if it kills her.
 
Review: Nina can never forgive Maggie for what she has done and thus she will never set her free. Nina keeps Maggie locked and chained in the attic for something that happened in the past. But there is more to that past that Nina doesn’t know about and Maggie wants to keep these secrets hidden, no matter what.
 
You get sucked into this sick story from page one, but why Nina is keeping Maggie locked up remains unanswered for a long time. You have a lot of questions, more then answers. And that makes “What Lies Between Us” an absolute page-turner. Along the way you realize that both women have their fair share of secrets and have done bad things.
 
It’s an intense thriller, full of adrenaline that takes insanity to another level. The twists and turns in the story alone are not mind-blowing, but you’re constantly led astray. When you think you’ve figured it out, it goes the other way. Because I didn’t predict that ending.

“What Lies Between Us” is an unstoppable, emotionally shocking and addictive thrill ride. I can now say that John Marrs is a favorite author and I want to read all of his books.
 
Rating: 4,5/ 5
