The Last Thing She Remembers

In J.S. Monroe's The Last Thing She Remembers, this spine-tingling thriller will leave you breathless and at the edge of the seat. It all started with a woman who arrived at the home of Laura and Tony Masters in London. She claims she had lost her luggage and doesn't remember anything, not even her name. After they take her in for the night, things became change.  For the time being, they call her "Jemma" and introduce her to the village. "Jemma" visits Tony's pub that serves vegan food and meets Luke, one of her lawyer's friend. The Masters couple became suspicious of her and how she knew the layout of their home among other things. They also believe she could be a woman called Jemma Huish, a deranged serial killer with mental health illness. While Laura wants her gone, Tony acts differently and becomes protective of her for some reason. They help her try to remember her name and to write her notes on what she called. When the police is brought in, they needed to take a closer look in Huish and if she could've been the person they've been looking for. For Luke, he believes this woman could be his daughter, the one his former girlfriend from high school put up for adoption thirty years ago. While Tony and Laura drift apart, Tony closes in on her and tells her not to write it down on paper. And at an intense showdown at the forest, the police shot the actual Jemma Huish when this woman isn't her. So who was she and why was she there? When she remembers her name is Maddie, she begins to remember what happened to her a decade year and how she sought revenge on Tony Masters, while the police discovers his sordid and twisted past and his fascination with seahorses and memories. In the end, she turns the tables around to tell her side of the story and have justice be served.

This was a fascinating and compelling chilling thriller to read from start to finish. I did feel sorry for Maddie and for what she had been put through in the past. I did become concerned on what would happen if the police had found out about her. I did feel worried for Luke who's search for his daughter might not happen, and for Laura, who trusted Tony before he became creepy. I did love the location around London then to Germany and India in the end. It was so visual and eye-popping for those scenic settings to come alive on the page to tell the story. This would leave you hooked with non-stop action, tons of drama, lots of intrigue, and sparks of suspense from start to finish.
