My Review
Sleepwalker by M.A. Hunter
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Jake is accused of killing his wife. He is sent to a clinic to determine if he is a sleepwalker and if he could have done it without remembering.
Sleepwalker is a very interesting book. There were parts in the beginning which were repetitive but once I was pulled in I was very invested in seeing how it all played out. It is one of those books that has you questioning everything and everyone.
I guessed one of the twists but I was wrong about several other things and I definitely had a jaw drop type of reaction towards the end.
There are a few elements that were not resolved for me and as a psychologist I had to suspend some of what I know towards the end. Before that last page the book was a solid 4 stars for me. After it was over I’d probably say 3.5 is my truer rating.
Overall, Sleepwalker is a very engaing psychological thriller that had me guessing until the very end.
Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.
