Harper McKenzie wakes to the worse possible day: her 18-year-old son has vanished from her Manhattan apartment without trace.

Worse, no-one knows what she’s talking about.

No-one thinks she had a son.

Ever.

Has she lost her grip on reality?

Or has the world shifted in a terrifying and unpredictable way?

The Effect is a taut psychological thriller that challenges everything we thought was real, as Harper’s quest to find her son pushes her to the very edge of reason.

It had me gripped right from the beginning. I'm normally pretty good at guessing the twists but this one had me flummoxed. It was a brilliant twist, but I feel like there's at least one chapter missing at the end, there was definitely unfinished business, did she make it for one thing. So apart from the disappointing ending, it was brilliant.

Really enjoyed this book

A compelling listen

it is very difficult to assess the story without doing spoilers, you think the world is straight forward in a right/true vs. wrong/untrue fashion, and the story twists and you’re wrong.

Great story, well written with good performances and production.

WOW, just wow!!

but ended rather disappointing. I was left feeling that there couple have been a chapter or two more.
The actors were great, the story was intriguing until chapter 6 then it just got silly and ended rather bluntly!

Started really interesting
