The Family Trap by Lorna Dounaeva
Happy Monday! Today, along with Zooloo’s Book Tour’s I have new psychological thriller for you. If you loved Gone Girl, The Girl on the Train or similar books, you will love this book!
About the Book:
Prudence
welcomed Zoe into her home. Now she’s fighting to survive.
Two simple words shatter Prudence Ahern’s world - “I’m pregnant.”
Her son Nathan is only eighteen when his new girlfriend Zoe drops that little
bombshell. Prudence feels she has to support her son and asks Zoe to move in
with them.
Right from the start, Prudence knows something isn’t right. When Nathan is
around, Zoe is sweet and funny but as soon as it’s just the two of them, she
becomes menacing and sullen.
Worse still, Prudence becomes the victim of a series of increasingly dangerous
accidents which begin soon after Zoe moves in.
She tries to warn her son that something is wrong with Zoe, but he refuses to listen,
so it’s left to Prudence to figure out what's going on. Who is the mysterious
Zoe? What exactly does she want from them? And whose child is she really
carrying?
Review:
The Family Trap
can have so many meanings. It is a perfect title for this story. Prudence has
just retired when she finds out her son’s girlfriend is pregnant. While it is
not news she expected to hear, she welcomes them into her home. When strange
things start to happen, Prudence starts to worry.
I was intrigued
by this book from the prologue. It is a book that kept me guessing who was good
and who was evil. I enjoyed the story and its many twists. It was a quick, very
good read!
