The Killing Game by J.S. Carol

The Killing Game by J.S. Carol
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

As Hollywood’s elite are dining at an upscale restaurant a masked gunman walks into the restaurant taking everyone hostage. Now begins the fight for their lives as the gunman makes a game of their fear and the stakes are who will live and who will die. With a bomb strapped to his chest so that if he dies then everyone dies the games seems to be in the favor of the gunman so will anyone make it out of the restaurant alive??

The Killing Game was an incredibly fast paced thriller from start to finish. Told from alternating POVs of a few of those involved this book has you on the edge of your seat not knowing what to expect from one page to the next. Packed full of intensity the twists and turns in this twisted game had me hooked from the very beginning.

With a cast of characters that each have their own issues and a killer whose motive is completely unknown this book made for one interesting read. I would warn this one gets a bit brutal and graphic at times but that definitely added to the on the edge feel as you don’t know who is going to survive from one page to the next.

Overall, yes I’d recommend this highly intense thrill ride, one great read from start to finish.

I received an advance copy from the publisher via NetGalley.
