Penance: From the author of BOY PARTS

Reviews

Emily Florence

The book is very dark, with vivid descriptions of the victim’s injuries which might not be to everyone’s tastes. Winced in recognition, recoiled at the brutality, finished in a day.

I highly recommend it to all fans of crime fiction or thrillers. It’s made me very nervous for my kids becoming teenagers. None of the characters are very likeable but as the story goes on and you find out more about their backgrounds I did start to feel a degree of sympathy for them.

The setting of this book is an interesting one and the author describes some of the town’s history alongside the murder investigation. It’s a town that has seen its fair share of ups and downs, including some very tragic events which helps build the atmosphere in the story as the reader is made to feel that anything can happen in this town. I found it a very gripping read and there always seemed to be something happening to ensure I kept reading.

The book opens at the end, detailing the gruesome murders and quickly throws the children right into the story. Penance is an incredibly gripping, dark and gritty book that is unlike anything I’ve read before. I often tried googling things from the book to find out more about it and only remembered that it was fake when a search brought up no matching results. Overall I thought this was a fantastic book that I’d definitely recommend to others.
