My Review for Don’t Look Back by Gregg Hurwitz

I’m giving this book 5 stars why? I couldn’t put it down. Eve is an ordinary woman, with an ordinary life and a young son. Until her husband announces he’s going to leave her for another woman, who is younger and more “elegant” than she is. Eve decides to go on a holiday to Mexico that she had originally booked with her husband.She joins a tour group and they head to the jungles of Oaxaca, Mexico.

By page 33 (print copy) you know something really, really bad is going to happen. And it does! The stroy moves at a cracking pace.

My only complaint is the back story of the antagonist – I thought this unbelievable. At this point I nearly gave up reading. So pleased I didn’t!

The story reminded a little of Agatha Christie’s Ten Little Indians, if you liked that you probably will enjoy this. The book is broken down to days of the week – to crank up the tension.

I loved the protagonist Eve – she was believable and most women could be able to identify with her. I did.

Highly recommended.
