NEXT OF KIN
Written by: James Tucker
Unbelievable, extraordinary, exceptional. Where do I begin? What a journey! If you are looking for a book to get you through the last few weeks of winter, this is your book. I binged most of it because I couldn’t put it down. It has short, punctual chapters like James Patterson, but tantalizing plot points like John Grisham.
Without spoiling the entire book, it’s about an extremely rich family who is getting eradicated by a serial killer. One kid, Ben, survives the first attack. Ben is brought to a detective for protection and things that ensue are nail-biting. The serial killer attempts to attack again and again.
What a brilliant plot twist. I didn’t even see it coming. When you read a lot, usually you have a hunch who the killer might be, or how they got away. Not in this case. I guess the biggest surprise for me is the fact that this is James Tucker’s first book. One doesn’t write like that without a lot of practice. I look forward to the next one. 9/10.
