The Wrong Man by Kate White ** Blog Tour Review **

I'm delighted to introduce Kate White's The Wrong Man to the blog today. It was published by Canelo on October 9th 2017.

A moment of pleasure leads to a deadly game of cat and mouse in this slick and suspenseful thriller.

Kit Finn meets handsome sculptor Matt Healy on a business trip and the two share a night of passion. They arrange a second date, but when Kit arrives at Matt’s apartment she is greeted by a stranger claiming he is the real Matt and that his identity was stolen.

Realising she has been duped Kit decides to put the encounter behind her. Shortly after, the police ask her to identify a man killed in a hit and run, carrying only her business card, and she is shocked to find the dead man is the person she knows as the genuine Matt Healy.

Kit fears she has become unintentionally embroiled in a sinister web of deceit. With no real evidence to take to police, Kit resolves to unravel the mystery herself. But can she do so before more lives, including her own, are put in danger?

For fans of psychological suspense and compulsive mysteries, don’t miss this tense and page-turning novel.

                                                                          My Thoughts

This is a cleverly plotted suspense novel with a touch of romance, a likeable central character in Kit and a great setting. By placing the story within the context of Kit's work as an interior designer in New York, there is plenty of interest through her cultural references and her great variety of clients. Kit herself is relatable and you feel for her throughout as she tries to uncover the truth. She does act impulsively on occasions and takes unnecessary risks but it is all to get to the bottom of the mystery. Her working relationship and friendship with Baby adds stability to her life and at times, a refuge.

    If you want a book which you will pick up and read in one or two sittings to the end and which will keep your interest to the end, this is one for you to enjoy. The story is well paced with a few surprises but not the type of thriller which will actually scare you! It intrigues rather than intimidates and the ending does not disappoint.

In short: A well paced read with a good cast of characters.
