The Inmate: A gripping psychological thriller

Product Information

YEP…. it’s speedy alright — I actually guessed one aspect of the story early on — but not the full extent of it…

In the present, Amelie and her wealthy husband Ned have been kidnapped and held for ransom. Admittedly, I don’t enjoy captivity stories.

But then, both Ned and Amelie are kidnapped and held in separate dark rooms with only a mattress on the floor. The kidnappers' plan is for Ned's billionaire father, Jethro, to pay a high stakes ransom. Hours and hours and days and days pass by without a ransom. Paris will give us a rundown on every splinter and every dust bunny creeping in Amelie's room. a b c Littleton, Cynthia (17 January 2018).

If you’re used to her books or her style it may be a bit predictable, but under any circumstance less enjoyable! And even after all the extended commentary on the kidnapping I was still left with unanswered questions!🤷‍♀️ All the male characters were practically indistinguishable from one another. I was almost at the end and one of them was mentioned and I thought, who the hell is that? It took me completely out of the story. I'm still confused about who he was and he played a pivotal role in the plot. If you're coming to Coles by car, why not take advantage of the 2 hours free parking at Sainsbury's Pioneer Square - just follow the signs for Pioneer Square as you drive into Bicester and park in the multi-storey car park above the supermarket. Come down the travelators, exit Sainsbury's, turn right and follow the pedestrianised walkway to Crown Walk and turn right - and Coles will be right in front of you. You don't need to shop in Sainsbury's to get the free parking! Where to Find UsPlease Lord, give me the strength to never listen to this type of book again. Just plain embarrassingly AWFUL!

Characters flit from place to place to serve the plot. Conversational exchanges happen that would NEVER happen in real life. Though the chapters are short and I was still able to blow through this in a few days, it was somewhat of a torturous experience. I kept wanting there to be emotional depth, surprising reveals, ANYTHING to make it make sense and make it seem like the plot was truly going somewhere interesting... but that never happened. I enjoyed the short chapters that helped move the book along at a nice pace. The two timelines were also enjoyable and kept me invested. The book started strong and instantly grabbed my attention and had me wanting to know more. It was obvious from the beginning, that her husband was not the nicest of fellows, and I wanted to know more of his motivation and why both were taken. That's how Amelie's world changes. She now has friends she can count on, a safe and comfortable place to live, as well as a good salary. She begins to live the life that other, more privileged girls, her age are living. How are you?” I say. At my question, he whips his head up and stares at me. “Well, Brooke, I’m spending my life in prison for something I didn’t do, so how the hell do you think I am? I’m not great.” I return his seething gaze. “I meant your head.”and although there are certain aspects of this that are positives for me personally, im just not sure the overall story/characters/writing is effective enough to create a super compelling story. but BAP has a lot of other great books, so im not too worried about this one. Amelie will seek answers from someone she thinks she has a special connection with (a stretch!) and a conversation that lasts way too long will fill in the blanks-TELLING us why the kidnapping occurred.
