Eleştirmen yorumları

"The Wreckage is an immersive, compulsive and gripping tale about what happens when three broken people's lives collide in the most tragic of ways. It's a book about control and obsession but the author cleverly veers away from cliche and melodrama - there are no cardboard cutout villains and heroes here - because, in Ben and Alice, he has created characters that are well rounded, nuanced, flawed and real. I thoroughly enjoyed it." (C.L. Taylor)

"A terrific debut exploring the vulnerabilities and co-dependency of damaged individuals. I loved the wonderfully subtle but insistent note of menace woven into the narrative, winding me into the colliding worlds of Ben and Alice and pushing me on to finish it. Clever and compelling!" (Fiona Barton)

"It doesn't feel like a first novel at all, it's written with the confidence of someone several books into their writing career. I absolutely loved Alice and her sarcasm. It's a great original idea, and the style reminded me in parts of authors like Clare Mackintosh, TM Logan and Mark Edwards." (John Marrs, author of The One)

The Wreckage is a psychological thriller centered around Ben, who when driving to work one day hits and critically injures Adam. Unable to deal with his guilt whilst awaiting Adams fate he speaks to Alice, Adams wife, and begins to form a close bond with her.
This story explores a number of key themes, from obsession and mental illness to the fine line between good and evil and the many layers and complexities of human relationships.
The very first scene of the book was incredibly powerful and meant that I didn't put it down all evening! It is a original story and very different from other psychological thrillers I've read, I'd really recommend this book to anyone that is looking for a thrilling (and sometimes scary) read. Very impressive from a debut author! I wouldn't be surprised if we saw this on our tv screens one day.

Brilliant Debut!

Loved this book and just as I thought it was moving towards a resolution there's a twist I didn't expect - along with a really ominous last chapter that made me question my judgement of one of the characters: still not sure if he's a "good guy"! Found all the characters infuriating and unpleasant at times, but this just added to my compulsion to listen to the story at every moment I could. I really wanted to know their backstory to make sense of their actions. Narrators were good - although I always hate adults taking on children's voices. Would recommend to readers who like a well paced story with an unexpected twist - not quite at the end - that contextualises the whole story.

Didn't see the twist coming!

Totally loved this book at first thought it was going to be a love story then became spellbound by all the twists and turns as the story unfolded, never expected the ending of the book couldn't stop listening. Narrators voices were brilliant were quite chilling at times.

Thrilling

This book took at least an hour longer than necessary due to ultra slow delivery of the narrators. A shame as the story was good.

So slow

The story is a great premise and the performances engaging, but somehow it dies the seem to go anywhere. The author writes with distracting detail that often annoyingly seems superfluous to the thread of the story. I found myself not liking either of the main characters. A solid but uninspiring read.

Leaves you wanting more..,
